1st place Etcetera: Reactions 2021 Magazine
Whippany Park’s Etcetera literary magazine does it again—another first place award from the American Scholastic Press Association! This year’s aptly chosen theme, Reactions, features poetry, prose, and art from Daniel Aviles-Espejo, Radon Belarmino, Sunnina Chen, Blanca Duque, Tracy Huang, Ava Menoni, Reece Montano, Jeremy Peluso, Sebastian Russo, Alan Yan, and Emma Zachary. Zachary, Etcetera’s editor-in-chief, notes, “There is a way to live life harnessing the potential of the world: change your reactions. If we can take pain in the palm of our hands and morph it into art, if we can survive the hardest 15 months of our lives by not knowing how to react, then imagine how powerful we would be if our reactions were deliberate. Change how you take in the world, and the world becomes anew.”
