Hello WCE readers and subscribers,

A big thank you to all the volunteers, proofreaders, authors, publishers, instructors and readers who have made the rekindling of WCE possible. A heads up, WCE will be taking a temporary break over the summer months but will be back with great pieces, events and reviews come September.

If you have anything you wish to promote now until then, please send my way (see contact page) and I’ll do my best to share it with our audience. Otherwise, have a splendid summer and read more come fall.

Best,
