A Letter
from the
Managing Editors
Welcome to AlvernoINK! In this issue, you will be enticed by riveting pieces of work that will warm your heart, bring you to tears, drive you to anger, and scare you to your core. Many of the contributors in this issue are students in the Printout to Publication course and have spent many hours this semester pouring their hearts and imaginations into the written word. We believe that you will find that their blood, sweat, and tears were not spent in vain.
We have organized INK in such a way that you will find both fiction and non-fiction sections as well as a segment dedicated to poetry. We also have a tab to highlight works from the Creative Writing students from the Spring 2017 semester.
We extend our deepest gratitude to our contributors. Their dedication to their writing craft is the foundation of AlvernoINK.
Our Warmest Thanks,
Sebastian & Sandy
Your Managing Editors
