Note from the editor
We are a bunch of creative people who believe in the power of literature. We seek to produce and read strings of words that can dazzle us, which can make us believe in life again, which can carry us to unknown places, which can bring about a change if needed and which can make lifelong friends of us. We like to go deep. More than anything, we just love the way the words play with our minds and emotions. The world needs art more than ever, and it will continue doing so until the robots take over. After that, it will need even more. Of literature.
