Open to international submissions; currently reviewing work for our spring 2010 edition. See submissions.

The winners of The Raving Dove of Hope Award are announced here. Our thanks to all the Oregon teens who entered this essay competition about nondiscrimination. We are especially grateful to Equity Foundation, Portland, Oregon, for making this Award possible.

Our winter 2009/2010 edition features the following poets and writers:

L.H. Adams, Diane Hoover Bechtler, Una Cruickshank, Louis Gallo, Laudizen King, David James, John Medeiros, Samantha Leigh Miller, Eric G. Muller, Deborah Rey, Richard Schiffman, Nancy Scott, Tovli Simiryan, Joan Steffens, Theresa Wyatt

Humane ... inhumane ... the human spirit never ceases to amaze us with its trajectory of both kindness and cruelty. Our winter edition paints the widest range to date. From awkward reactions to a movement disorder--to a trans tale--to the Olympic dream, the power of a swastika, and newfound optimism in Cambodia, the writing in this edition is sure to give you pause. Please take a moment to read the offerings of our fifteen talented poets and writers, and make sure to forward the link to all who might be interested. Thanks for stopping by.
