From the Editors

Welcome to the 34rd issue (and sixth digital publication) of The Living Hand. This year’s publication also features submissions from spring Creative Writing students and our fall Storytellers competition winners. Thanks to all those who submitted, to Spring Creative Writing for all their work in editing and creating this website, and to the Fall Creative Writing course for running our competition. Without further ado, we present the 2026 publication of The Living Hand!
