Latitudes

Hawaii Writers Guild Literary Review, Edition II

Managing Editor: Bob Lupo

Editorial Staff: Joy Fisher, Tamara Williams, Jada Rufo, Jan Asch, Duncan Dempster

We are pleased to announce the second issue of our Online Literary Review Latitudes

E komo mai to our readers of the second Literary Review published by the Hawai’i Writers’ Guild. The scented breezes of the Aloha State are said to inspire artists to pursue their crafts in many forms. We believe this issue of Latitudes demonstrates the truth of this for our authors. In the following pages you will find drama, humor, insight, and a bit of provocative writing to keep your brain pondering into the night.

Over a third of our members sent in pieces for consideration. Forty pieces were ultimately chosen from the seventy-two submissions received by the Latitudes Editorial Committee. We trust that you will agree with the committee in appreciating the quality of their choices, and that these pieces, across four genres, will bring you hours of thoughtful, humorous, and insightful reading pleasure.

We wish to say mahalo nui loa to Bob Lupo, the Managing Editor and Fiction Editor of this year’s publication, and to the entire staff: Duncan Dempster, who engineers the conversion of text to online publishing and is an Editor-at-Large; Joy Fisher, Editor-at-Large; Jada Rufo, Nonfiction Editor; Tamara Williams, Poetry Editor; and Jan Asch, Drama Editor. Their tireless work has resulted in this publication. We hope you enjoy these selected works from our Guild members.

Mahalo,
Carol McMillan
President, Hawai’i Writers’ Guild
