the sunlit
santa monica high school's student-run literary + arts magazine
issue 4
This issue, the SunLit’s theme is Nostalgia. Especially during high school, as we leave childhood behind, we’re drawn to the golden past, both our own and time periods we’ve never experienced. Whether imagining what could have been or celebrating what was, the pieces in this issue explore how nostalgia affects us all. We would like to thank all of the wonderful writers and artists who submitted and our readers for all the support.

​
The theme of this issue is Connection and Introspection. The two concepts, and the intersection between them, is something that the pandemic has lead many of us to contemplate: how do we connect when we are far apart? who are we when others' perceptions of us are stripped away? We would like to sincerely thank everybody who submitted, and our readers. The SunLit is our way of connecting with you, and we hope it inspires introspection!
