AUDIO

Several members of Ludington Writers are visually impaired and their advocacy and input on how Ludington Writers, Making Waves, and our world as a whole could be more inclusive led us to seek to provide author-read audio of each of the pieces selected for this issue.

We are grateful to each author who participated in this endeavor.
