"Loadstar" is an archaic word meaning "guiding star." We think of those who have abandoned their homeland and wish to celebrate the hope of refuge. There is still much to do after arriving on this side of the world. We know the numerous souls who have come searching for a dream. Here we are for those who aspire to write and those who want to tell their stories, sheltered under the notion that the written word can give light to even those most lost, like a guiding star.
