Editor's Note

Producing this year's Legacy has bean an adventure. Instead of having Quick Print publish our little volume, I decided to tackle the project myself as part of a money-saving scheme. It took awhile to become re-acqualnted with PageMaker, but after a few frustrating wrestling matches with the copier, what you have In your hands is, voila!, the Legacy.

A big thank you to all those who submitted works for the '97- '98 Legacy. It's often difficult to flush poets out of the woodwork since poetry is such a personal form of expression. Nevertheless, I was able to entice a good many of you to enter your poems and prose pieces in this year's contest. Prizes were given for 1st and 2nd places in both the poetry and prose categories. Only selected works were Included in the Legacy. Again, thank you to all the brave souls who entered.
