Hey folks, a new literary journal is headed our way and it's called The Normal School. It's coming to us from the creative minds of Steven Church and Matt Roberts - two gentlemen I had the pleasure of being on a panel with at AWP last year. My early money is on them to succeed as they are both energetic and wise about the literary world. They've also grabbed some great contributing editors per their press release (including many an EWN'er). They're looking for your work now!
The Normal School.
A Literary Magazine
Now Accepting:
Creative Nonfiction. Story. Poem. Critique. Experiential Recipes.
Quirky. Boundary-challenging. Energetic. Innovative in both form and focus.
We're the equivalent of the kid who always has bottle caps, cat's eye marbles, dead animal skulls and other treasures in his pockets.
Trust us. We're Normal.
Contributing Editors include Steve Almond, Tom Bissell, Beth Ann Fennelly, Duncan Murrell, Laura Pritchett, Steve Yarbrough, and MORE.

Thanks, Dan. Just wanted to make sure that everyone knows that The Normal School originated with three of us: Steve, myself, and the unflagging Sophie Beck. She'll be at NonfictionNow to spread the Normal School gospel if you can't wait for AWP.

Thanks for the info, Dan. I can't believe I've only just discovered your site. I'll add you to mine, literary lotus. Aloha, Christine
