As usual, I will be providing a list of quotes to inspire your writing for our latest issue. In this issue, we want to hear about your point of view on games. We want to read about what games symbolize to you. You could write about the relationships you form and strengthen while playing games, or the challenges the games exhibit. Although this theme is open to submissions that are serious, sad, silly, joyful, and everything in between, it can still be difficult to find writing inspiration. So, I hope these quotes will help to spark your creative mind!
