The story behind stories
Notes From The Editor
This is the section of our website where Editor Warren Perley sometimes adds background material to provide context to some of the stories written by our contributors. It may involve an explanation of how or why a story was written or it may be background material about our writers and the people they are writing about.
Occasionally, Warren’s notes have nothing to do with any of the stories we posted; instead, they may encapsulate some of his thoughts or comments about events happening in the lives of our readers and writers – call it “social commentary”, if you will.
The main criteria for appearing in Notes from The Editor is to inform, stimulate, and entertain our readers who are welcome to communicate with us any ideas they might have about an article or with suggestions for future literary contributions.
Readers and writers can send Warren an email here.
