Our colleagues at Gettysburg Review have received some devastating news. It’s alarming for the literary community as a whole, & the SLM fam encourages everyone to voice their thoughts to the university that defunded them. All our voices matter!

Why is it always bad news from my home state
I’d say this banned-books story horrifies me because I’m queer, but honestly I don’t think I’d be less horrified if I were straight. It’s the kind of insanity that should worry anyone who cares about a) living in a free society or b) other people. popular.info/p/florida-sc...

Real talk.

We need 300 new subscribers (including renewals) to keep publishing issues at our current size. If we don't get hit that number we will need to scale back the magazine size.

Help us keep our size (or increase it!) over the next two weeks!

Your email finds me.
I try to strike it down with old magicks, but it has prepared for this battle. It trips me up with a blast of lightening. I fall to the ground as all that I am — several owls and a bewildered looking crab — escape my trenchcoat.

Agree! They LOVE looking up authors on social media to see what they're "really like"!
Yearly PSA for lit teachers: help fight cheating, plagiarism, and AI by teaching living poets/writers (esp ones you know through social media). Trust me, it works.
