We like to blow our own horn: After going live on November 1st, we can turn around December’s issue, number two, in less than eight weeks. Toot! Fweet!

We’re shameless self-promoters: Carolyn begged for submissions on writers’ bulletin boards, shook booty in Brussels and distributed bookmarks, while Colin baked a cake with annotations in our Literary Bohemian test kitchen.

We’re hung up on our looks: Colin spent hours preening to attract quality submissions by excellent writers.

We’re perfectionists. We’re exhibitionists. We hope it shows. And now, without further adieu, a round of applause for our writers and issue number two.
