In their recent issue, P&W mentions MAKE as one of 20 new lit mags ready to receive your work.
Pretty nice. Plus, word on lots of other mags we’re happy to know about.

These folks are a sponsor in the forthcoming issue. But beyond “thank you”, we’d like to say, there is still time to sign up for this amazing conference.

Returning from One Place to Another:
A Poet’s Theater Showcase
Curated by John Beer, Links Hall Artistic Associate

Joyelle McSweeney and Johannes Göransson
The Widow Party
Friday & Saturday, May 9 & 10, 8pm
Sunday, May 11, 7pm
$12 ($10 students)
Links Hall
3435 N. Sheffield, #207

The Widow Party is collaboratively written and performed melodrama, Wild West show, political thriller, pageant, and farce. With song, dance, projections, sound effects, and mimicry of preposterous acts, visions and revisions of characters, media, genres and events will change, interrupt, and harmonize with each other.

- You’ve already missed (or hopefully not) one weekend of shows. This is quite an amazing collections of writers, performers, and writers performing. A monologue from The Widow Party written by Joyelle McSweeney is set to appear in the forthcoming MAKE. If it’s any indication of the whole, it’s gonna be one hell of a show. Even if the two-headed calf can’t make it.

MAKE and a whole gaggle of really great, informed writers and writing industry people will be in Chicago for the very first Pilcrow Lit Fest.
Plan on panels, parties, readings, and an auction to benefit New Orleans public libraries.
We’re planning on learning a thing or two. And maybe having just one, OK, a few, at the party.
Thursday, May 22 - Sunday, May 25th
