I’m so upset that I missed this event! It looked charming to attend, and I’m kicking myself for missing it. Hopefully, when issue 27 comes out, which won’t be for a while, I can participate with Zoom or in person.
We would be happy to see you at our Issue 27 Launch party over Zoom! Details to come!
Congratulations on your 26th issue!
Thank you! Be sure to check out our 27th issue next! 🙂
