Issue 3 already?
 

​

v—The geese fly back and winter’s over. She leaves her final imprints amidst gentle snowflakes and the chill of brisk winds—paving the way for spring showers, flower markets, and a palette of soft pastel hues.

​

What first started as a concept based on vibrancy and unity has now transformed into pages filled with intimate experiences from young, established, and emerging artists across the globe. In v’s newest issue, we emphasize our initial concept more than ever, creating pages that capture what it means to be human.

 

As always, thank you to the v team for reading, editing, and being the foundation of this new issue. Thank you to the poets, writers, and artists for sharing their world with us. Thank you to our readers, followers, and anyone who stumbled across our endeavour for embodying vibrancy and unity.  

​

Around this time last year, Morouje and I scheduled meetings, made pretty documents, and planned timelines. I can’t say much has changed—Morouje and I are still scheduling meetings, and making documents and creating timelines. However, our team has expanded from two girls to plenty of writers across the world, and we have planned projects that would leave my last year self amazed, and v has three issues published. I couldn’t be more grateful for the growth v has experienced this past year.
