Welcome to Issue 30 of Panoply. This issue completes our tenth year! We’re quite honored to have been part of such a creative and wonderful project. And we look forward to keeping on! Thanks for your support, patronage, and lovely work.

It’s been an unsettled – and unsettling – time around here recently. Unfortunately, we’re keenly aware that that statement applies to too much of our world. While we strive to tilt the scales in favor of what is good, right, and just, we keep to our own good health and welfare. Perhaps Panoply plays a small role in evening your keel amid these tumultuous waters.

Have a look at the fine work here, so much that it busts our informal norms of content! We do stress quality over quantity, but this time we can boast both!

As always, we send our love and thanks and ask you to pray for Ukraine.

Andrea, Clara, and Jeff, Editors
