As we near the year’s end, we wish to thank you, readers, for spending time here reading the awesome stories by the writers we’ve been lucky enough to work with. We also want to thank those writers; in the coming days we will revisit work that has graced these electronic pages since Stoneslide began on February 29, 2012.

And although it feels a little like thanking ourselves because they’re integral to Stoneslide, we also want to thank our contributing editors: Mark Boutin, Tia Creighton, Erica Gingerich, and Sam Holloway.

We have been pleased to bring you writers as diverse as Faulkner Gold Medal winner and two-time National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize nominee Lynn Stegner, Pushcart nominee Douglas W. Milliken, and new and emerging writers like Tadhg Muller, James Mitchell, and Salma Saeedi.

We’ll be back in the new year with more—much, much more.
