A Note from Founding Editor, Lee (Lori) Desrosiers:
Monica Hand and I founded WORDPEACE in the hope of making a difference, despite having to live our lives, care for our families, and continue writing and publishing. Monica isn’t with us anymore to see the continuation of this vision, and I miss my friend. Every issue of this journal/project will be dedicated to her. We are so blessed to have Monica Barron (non-fiction), Lisa C. Taylor (fiction and poetry). Lee Desrosiers (poetry) and Russell Taylor (visual art) choosing work for the journal. We all want to stand up to indifference by publishing work that inspires people to think, in the hope that it will spur some to activism, and hopefully will help pave the way to kindness, sensibility, peace and social justice.
