After all, aren't all beginnings new? And when is a new beginning begun? A challenge, indeed, if you are a writer.\u003cbr\u003eWhether a neophyte rower clearly out of your league, a washed up detective looking for that redeeming case, an ex-con questioning ones self-worth, a new bride with second thoughts, or somewhere\/anywhere in between, our authors took the theme and spun it around, whipped it up, and turned it into something refreshing, stimulating, soul-wrenching, thought-provoking, or simply fun.\u003cbr\u003eWe all may not share the same concept of what constitutes a new beginning and our experiences can be worlds and galaxies apart, but the one common thread that pulls us together is the passion to write and share inner-most thoughts and creativity. Some might even argue that the writer's desire is strong enough to overcome criticism and rejection. Others will say that sharing our talents and inner struggles is redemption all its own. But in the end, the baring of the soul in creative art forms becomes the end point, the greater goal. There are those writers, as Ms. Parker suggests, that might even be willing to take a bullet for it!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eManaging Editors: \u003c\/b\u003e Marcia Buompensiero \u0026amp; Rivkah Sleeth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributing Editors: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIrene Flynn, Asst.
