Letter From The Editor
What a strange year it has been. As November rolls around, I find myself wondering exactly what I’ve been doing all year. Between COVID-19 and the general political climate of the U.S (where we are based), as well as the numerous other disasters (and some successes) of this year, I think we’re all wondering where the year has gone. Below is an excellent collection of poetry from 36 poets around the world whose work I have brought together to form a representation of how all of us are really feeling. It is so incredible to see the progress LitFor has made from last year. We have been able to publish 30 more poets than Issue One, and we’ve gained a Duotrope listing! To many more years. I hope you enjoy Issue Two as much as I do.
Additionally, a massive thank you to our donors, SoftSaph and Meghan Malachi, as well as to our Pushcart Prize Nominees: Jairo DeAlba, Cassie Jayne Fielding, Reina Davis, John Grey, and Robert Halleck. Thanks for an amazing second year.
