Special Announcement: Changes for Rose &Thorn in 2012
Announcement! Announcement! Announcement!
Rose & Thorn Journal is undergoing a major change. We are currently in the process of transitioning from a quarterly to a semi-annual journal beginning with our spring issue this year, which will go live May 15 (instead of April 15), and following with our fall issue, which will go live November 15.
As a result of these changes, our submittal period dates have been updated on our website for both prose and poetry. Please make sure to familiarize yourself with these new dates so we don’t miss out on receiving your wonderful submissions due to technicalities! From now on, submissions will only be accepted and read during the following months:
Submittal Period Issue Publication Date
December 1 – February 28 Spring May 15
June 1 – August 30 Fall November 15
Along with these new changes to R&T, we’re also excited to announce the addition of Robin McAndrew to our Poetry Department and Alaine Benard as our Art Director-at-large. Robin has a long history of working in both the written and visual arts, and Alaine will expand our visual art offerings by creating a virtual gallery that readers will be able to peruse on our site and the blog. Please join us in welcoming them aboard, and please take a moment to stop by our Staff Page to read their bios and to get to know them better. As always, we consider our readers to be the best, most generous readers in the cyber sphere, and we are delighted any time you help to spread R&T news and buzz across the social media waves.
