Editors Emeriti

David Dodd Lee

Art Editor | 2017-2023

David has been (and remains) a steady mentor, friend, and a true cornerstone of Twyckenham Notes. His taste, generosity, and careful eye helped shape the magazine from the inside out, and we're deeply grateful for his guidance—then and now.

John T. Leonard

Poetry Editor | 2017-2023

TN isn't what it is today without John. He was part of Twyckenham Notes shortly after its founding—an early believer, a trusted sounding board, and a friend from Austin's IUSB years. When the work got heavy, he carried the team more than once with his dedication, precision, and attention to detail. We're grateful for his constancy, his ideas, and the level of care he brought to every issue.

Adam Schelle

Associate Editor | 2020-2023

Adam stepped in during key stretches to help read poetry submissions, and his willingness to lend time and judgment made a real difference. We're grateful for his support and for the steady help he offered when we needed it.
