In this, the 11th edition of Blue Ink - the Truth edition - the writers of the Northern Writers' Club find meaning as they perceive the world around them. The works in this anthology organically came together around this theme, and the writers and artists between the covers present to you a number of unique ways to see the world around them. This year, the Northern Writers has expanded its scope significantly welcoming many new creatives to our collective. Thank you to the wonderful leadership provided by our club leaders for your vision. We continue to be a welcoming place for all writers and creatives to find their truths as they go forward in life.
