The purpose of the issue is to acknowledge, investigate and celebrate the degree to which Mexico influences those living in the central United States , especially those in Kentucky and bordering states.
Submissions may include fiction, non-fiction, poetry, interviews, translations from Spanish, etc.. The main criterion for acceptance, aside from literary excellence, is how well the submission addresses the theme of the issue.
We will read submissions for this issue between August 15, 2007 and November 15, 2007 . Please check this page for further updates. We will not be accepting submissions unrelated to our theme.
All submissions must be sent via Submissions Manager .

Ah yes. I’d almost forgotten about that, with everything else that has happened this semester. It will be interesting to see if they used that cover design that I submitted at all, or if they decided on a better one. Not that I would blame them in the least if they did, since I’m by no means a graphic artist. Of course it will be interesting to see the next issue period, but that goes without saying. Here’s hoping that they are getting much better submissions than they were when I was working on that project.

Let us hope, MW, that this notice will bring New Madrid some excellent submissions. It’s a good project and I sure would like to see them succeed with it.
