When Evanston Public Library branch assistant Kellye Fleming noticed many of her friends were trying new artistic projects during the pandemic, she was inspired to start 10th Ward Lit, a library literary magazine.
“A lot of people around me were taking up different creative hobbies to take up their time, or to entertain their children,” Fleming said. “Creative outlets are very important, especially in times of stress, and I think they can be very bonding.”
Fleming proposed the idea for 10th Ward Lit, a digital library publication, to EPL last August, and now serves as its editor in chief. 10th Ward Lit is currently accepting poems, short fiction, photographs and illustrations for its first issue, The Coronavirus Issue, which is scheduled to publish in June.

Dr. Jane Lombard of El Camino Health’s Women’s Heart Center plans to present the above graphic at Saturday’s Heart Forum. The chart shows more cases of heart disease deaths among women than men from approximately 1985 to 2013. “WHI” stands for “Women’s Health Initiative” (a national long-term study launched in 1991) and “HRT” stands for “hormone replacement therapy.”
For years, heart disease was seen primarily as a man’s problem. But it’s very much a woman’s concern as well. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in the U.S., accounting for one in every five female deaths. And until about 2013, more women than men were dying of heart disease.
