Dear Friends,
Well, well, well. It’s been quite a week for our little sphere barreling through space. People are speaking. People are acting. People are looking for equity and justice. For themselves, their neighbors, the environment. Smaller and smaller gets the world. Larger and larger get our demands on it and one another. But, as I’ve heard countless of our number say, the work is just begun.
Believe it or not, what we do in this little corner of the universe, as creatives, as writers, is part of that work. While AI threatens our existence, our work proves our unique circumstance of flesh and bone, conscience and synapse, beats a data scrape, hands down. That’s one person’s opinion, anyway.
Here’s to our good night. We will not go gentle. Enjoy the issue.
With Peace,
Raymond Prucher, Editor
