LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
T
here’s a part of me that will never get over that back to school excitement. You know, that “I can’t wait to go to staples and get a new planner and 6 unnecessary boxes of highlighters and colored pens” excitement. Despite the fact that I haven’t been in school for 5 years now, the Fall will always make me want to organize my life and start working on the creative endeavors I’ve successfully ignored over the summer. This issue has great tips and tricks on how to disconnect from the distractions of social media, set up your perfect creative workspace, and harness all of your creative energy in order to successfully start and finish those projects that have been floating around in your heads. We will also meet a band that puts a fresh new spin on that old school alternative 90’s rock sound we love and miss so much.
