Margo – I’m so thankful to be paired with you for auditions! Posting this issue with you was a blast, and it barely felt like work! Your drive and passion for The Forum is clear in everything you do and write, and I’m so happy I got to experience that with you. Thanks for spending 5 hours with me on a Saturday, editing and re-editing countless articles, and going to get lavender waffles for a “posting break.” I love listening to you talk about all your ideas for the future and I can’t wait to see what amazing things you do for The Forum!
Much Love,
Lauren
P.S. You’re the best, Johnny. Don’t think I forgot about you! Lauren, Thank you so much for your guidance and support. This issue has morphed from an intimidating (yet still exciting) opportunity to show leadership skills into a fun and creative project. There was never a point in the creation of this issue where you weren’t supportive and encouraging, and a large portion of my enthusiasm for this new side of the Forum has stemmed from the passion that you so obviously have for it’s success. I hope everyone enjoys reading this issue as much as I enjoyed writing it with you, even if they’re not eating lavender waffles like us. Xx, Margo P.S. Bet you I can post this faster than you… ]]>
