Letter from the Editor
Dear Reader,
This edition of Licton Springs Review has come to fruition through a historic level of natural disruption and social uprising. The coronavirus and civil unrest completely transformed day-to-day life, including the production of this magazine. The Black Lives Matter movement took off nearing the completion of this work, emphasizing the role of art and writing in the fight for justice and equity. At LSR, adaptability became key to the production process. There were moments when publication seemed impossible, but the artists and writers at North were a constant inspiration. This magazine demonstrates our devotion to the arts.
I am happy to have had the opportunity to work with the creators at North. Please never stop creating; the world needs your voice.
All the best,
Maeve Flynn
