It’s hard to convey all the emotions that I felt while reading this book. When I started this club with two friends, it was hard to imagine our little writer’s club would ever produce a writer’s dream- something tangible and published in real binding. I used to daydream about these possibilities while being lost in the realities of starting something- and our first year was very hard. We had just enough members to count as a student group, and some meetings were as small as myself and two other people who had shown interest in this kind of club. Seeing how it has grown in the years since I left the University, I wonder why I waited until my final year to take the leap and co-start it.
They say legacy is planting seeds in a garden you never get to see. If any of the people responsible for this anthology see this review, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for rendering that statement false. I was lucky enough to see the trees because of your hard work. You have made some of my daydreams into reality- and how can one ever properly thank people who make their dreams come true?
