What are the ideas going ahead? Do you intend to stick to the one poet-one fiction - one translation format per issue, or was that just a starter? Almost daily brief issues like Autumn Sky, or four large issues as year, or something else? Themes? And so forth. You state: “Most web journals don’t take advantage of the web.” He was right: they still think in terms of issues and volumes, they don’t incorporate all technology offers. We are determined to be completely different. But I can't find how or where. "We haven't figured that out yet" is a perfectly acceptable answer. But I am curious.

Bill,

Congrats, it looks great. Like Michael, I read your editorial and wondered how the journal will work.

Best of luck with it.

Matt

Though Bill doesn't seem to be online right now, I can report that there's new poetry and fiction up today, and that when I link to the journal on Facebook, the slogan "Beauty First" appears with the title. And that matches what Bill said when he first called for work; they want what's beautiful.

Guess I was in the wilds of Patagonia when that call came about. The journal is indeed beautiful. Kudos, Bill!
