This week is the start of the editing process for the spring issue of the literary magazine Fire and Stones. This year, Fire and Stones has added both a website and an annual winter issue. I really enjoyed working with the staff in the winter because I learned new layout programs and read all of the great submitted work. I am excited to start working on the new challenge, the spring issue, because this time, we have a lot more submissions and more pages to fill. The magazine staff is made up of students from all four grades. This effort is what makes seeing the final product so satisfying. It is incredibly gratifying to open up the first copy and see both our work and the creative work of the authors and artists all coming together. I am excited to get that feeling again after the spring issue is finished.
