“L _ _ _” is a poetry anthology that I put together by inviting poets, rappers, poetry event organizers, etc., to submit their poems on relationships for. It was fun. It’s the first project that I’ve ever edited, and it gave me the opportunity to work with people that I like without charging them for my services. It also let me give an opportunity to so many people who’ve helped me out in the past.
