New and Improved Blog Coming Soon!

Hello Everyone!

If you’ve kept up with the SR News Blog, you may have noticed a lack of posts for the

past week or so. Never fear! This is not us losing interest in keeping our wonderful readers posted, but a foreshadowing of wonderful news.

The SR News Blog is getting a makeover; one that will make it even more informative and interactive than

before!

So check back at the beginning of next week to see the exciting new face of the SR News Blog!

And as always, thanks for reading!

Author Bios

As we busily work toward the publication or our first issue, we are in the process of collecting bios for the 31 contributors that will have their work published in our April issue.

We at Superstition Review believe that knowing a little about the author often enhances the understanding of their work - it will also give you the opportunity to discover what authors you like and will give you the chance to find out more about them.

But remember, many writers will purposely write something that they have not personally experienced in an attempt to broaden their scope.

So keep your eyes peeled for more information about the writers that will be featured in the April issue of Superstition Review!

Changes to Website

If you’ve visited our Homepage recently, you’ll notice some sizable changes. While we’re still in the process of changing some things around, we’re doing our best to make our site as interactive as possible. We want to be an online literary magazine that not only hosts great writing, but does so in a way that compliments the meaning of the writing we’re publishing.

But don’t forget to keep a lookout for our Inaugural Issue, which debuts at the end of April. And as always, don’t forget to check the News Blog for the most recent updates about Authors, Events, and changes to the Superstition Review Homepage.

Issue Date Changed!

For all of you who are eagerly awaiting the arrival of the first issue of Superstition Review, you’ll be happy to hear that the issue will be debuting at the end of April instead of the beginning of May.

To learn more about what will be in the upcoming issue, visit our Homepage for more information.

We hope that you all remembered to mark you calendars for today’s amazing Superstition Review reading series featuring ASU Virginia G. Piper Center Creative Writers Charles Jensen, Beth Staples, Aimee Baker, Matthew Brennan, and Marqueshia Wilson.

The Deadlines Have Just Begun

Even though the deadline for the potential authors of Superstition Review has already passed, the deadlines are only just beginning for us here at the magazine.

After receiving hundreds of submissions, we need to have all of the final selections for our Inaugural issue decided by March 24th at the latest. The prospect is overwhelming to say the least, especially with all of the amazingly creative and high-quality work that we have received.

We here at Superstition Review can’t thank everyone who submitted their work enough; sending in your work to a publication takes a lot of courage, and we know that for many of you, your writing is a small part of yourself. But we can’t reinforce enough that even if your piece is not published in Superstition Review, we are honored that you shared it with us.

So here’s to a wonderful start of a busy week, and to a wonderful cast of authors, editors, and a wellspring of incredible writing for all!

End of Submission Period!

Yesterday, March 15th, was the last day that submissions for Superstition Review were accepted. If you missed the deadline, remember that we will also publish an issue in Fall, 2008.

Stay tuned to the News Blog to find out the latest on submission deadlines and other events for Superstition Review.

Superstition Review Joins ‘ASU in the Community’ Website!

It’s an exciting day for the staff here at the magazine because Superstition Review has just been accepted as a part of the ASU in the Community database. According to their homepage, the site “demonstrates ASU’s commitment to the region as a New American University, while also serving as a tool for identifying specific programs and linking to a network of people engaged in the community.”

Superstition Review is a perfect example of what the ASU in the Community site is trying to do because Superstition Review is not only a collaboration between students and staff from different degree programs at ASU, but also hosts readings that are open to the public free of charge.

To find out more about what Superstition Review is doing in the community, check out our page on the ASU in the Community website, or, visit our homepage.
