Hi folks.

This week, we shared Edith-Nicole Cameron's review of The Hitch by by Sara Levine (Roxane Gay Books). You'll recall that Sara wrote some research notes about her novel a few weeks ago. This is Edith-Nicole's first time in our pages and we're glad to be sharing her work.

Yasmina Din Madden returned to our pages to discuss her collection You Know Nothing (Curbstone Press) with Kim Magowan, also a past contributor.

This week's featured story was "Covalent Bonds" by Myles Varga.

And in research notes, Meg Mullins writes about We Are All Having Fun Here, newly published by Fork Apple Press.

Elsewhere, contributor Mandy-Suzanne Wong has a new essay collection, Daughter of Mother-of-Pearl, available from Graywolf Press. Kyle Minor also has a new essay collection, How To Disappear And Why, from Sarabande Books. And Kim Magowan, mentioned above, will have a new story collection, The Last Day, available from Moon City Press next week in time for AWP.

Speaking of AWP, most of our editorial team will be there so please say hello if you spot us. Fiction editor Lacey Dunham will read Friday, March 6 as part of "Longing & Belonging: A Debut Author Reading with Q&A," at The Ivy Bookshop.

And on Saturday, March 7 Lacey will be part of the on-site panel "Choose Your Own Adventure: Debut Authors on the Different Paths to Publication" at 3:20pm in Room 321.

Reviews editor Diane Josefowicz will be reading on Friday 7-9pm at L'Esprit's offsite at Viva Books, 326 North Charles Street, then again on Saturday 6-9 pm with Cornerstone Books at Motor House, 120 W. North Ave., 6-9 pm. 

Lacey has also organized, under one of her other hats, the event "Rewriting the Archive: Poetic Voices on Who Defines History" to be held Friday, March 6 at 1:45pm in Ballroom I, Level 400. That event will feature Tyehimba Jess, Iain Haley Pollock, and Leigh Sugar, moderated by Andrea Jurjevic.

And you'll find me at events for Emerson College, Redivider, and Ploughshares on Thursday night all back-to-back at Angels Rock Bar. We look forward to catching up with our readers and contributors.

Thanks for reading,

Steve Himmer
