In the Mist is a new electronic literary journal about women and the outdoors. One of my Katrina poems, "Where the Pines Went" has been accepted for their environmental awareness issue, to be published in April. They are also holding a few more of my poems for possible publication in the second issue (whenever that is). In the meantime, though, something different--three of my photographs appear in the inaugural issue: http://www.inthemistmag.com/art.html

Warm congrats on your acceptances and thanks so much for telling us about a mag for outdoorsy women.

Looks like a terrific publication. Every molecule in my body started screaming "Take me hiking, Janice!" It's been a while, cause we've had downpours pretty near every day this summer.

Remind us again when ypur poem and photos appear.

Thanks, Janice. The photos are in the current issue.

I'm glad you like the new journal. When I first heard about it, I knew I had to submit. I am not an outdoorswoman, per se (though I wish I were) other than the occasional moderate hike or canoe trip, but I grew up near woods and live and garden in a relatively woodsy area.
