A Sneak Peek

10/20/2010

The other day Floorboard formally accepted its first photo submission ever.  Oh, just wait until you see these things--absolutely captivating images from David Patrick's journeys in Croatia, Bosnia i Hercegovina, & Macedonia.  The images capture the imagination in a way that transports the viewer--just wait until you see them!

I am so pleased with how the poetry submissions are going, too.  I am hoping that this weekend I will be able to finally take a look at them--believe me when I tell you I'm like a kid at Christmas waiting to read poems!  I am confident that we'll have our first beautiful issue out around Christmas, in fact!

In the meantime, I am soaking up the anticipation.  Delicious stuff!

New things left and right

The other day I got Floorboard's first batch of postcards in the mail.  They turned out pretty cool, even if they're cut a little imperfectly.  They are already circulating at school, and the plan is to get them out to all the editorial staff and friends within the next few days. 

I've been calling for submissions on Twitter and Facebook, and I'm so excited about what we've received so far--I can't say too much about it yet, but I anticipate a very cool first issue.

We've been figuring out how to manage our submission manager, and I just have to say again how much I enjoy Submishmash.  As a not-that-technically-inclined person, I appreciate Submishmash's relative simplicity and their incredibly helpful, speedy-to-respond staff.  Some cool new features just rolled out too--very cool stuff.

Personally, new things have been happening too: last week we said goodbye to a good friend who lived a beautiful, long life, and I received news of my chapbook's acceptance for publication.  A full and varied week for sure.
