Welcome to Issue #002!

I’m so excited for you to see this issue. Inside is some of the best content we’ve featured in Collective Realms to date and the authors were absolutely amazing.

I’ll admit, it was difficult getting this issue out during a pandemic but the editing staff and the authors worked hard to get everything ready to go for the launch. I owe everyone who had a hand in this issue a great deal of gratitude.

So, dear reader, please think of them and the work they put into this issue when you read and I hope you enjoy their work as much as I did. 

From your Editor-in-Chief,

Chandra Montez
