We&#8217;re incredibly indebted to you, our community\u2014the readers, contributors, staff, partners, family, and friends who&#8217;ve read and commented on the blog and magazine, submitted work, subscribed to our newsletter, attended our events, volunteered your time and resources, visited our table at book fairs and literary festivals, and shared our content. 2020 feels, by all accounts, like a strange and difficult year in which to be celebrating anything, but as we reflect back on where we&#8217;ve come, we can&#8217;t help but feel both immense gratitude and renewed determination for the road ahead. The past ten years have only served to strengthen our deep belief in the necessity of poetry and in the rich, vibrant beacon that is the APA literary landscape. We look forward to continuing the work of highlighting and celebrating APA poetry\u2014in concert with our community and in solidarity with others\u2014in the years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you for your support throughout the years, and cheers to the future of APA poetry!
