Review this issue on Goodreads
Honored to be included amongst such talented writers and illustrators! This line from Siv Delfin was a good reminder to me to see clearly this week: "I don’t want to see the world through diamond eyes, kaleidoscopic, made out of things which do not exist."
ReplyDeleteKudos to all the authors and artists:) I think I'm especially partial to "How Far Does the Night Have to Fall". It's short, but bittersweet.
