BluePrintReview - Gratitude #19

I am grateful today for editors who take passionate chances on new and emerging writers, who embrace their vision of art without compromise.

Dorothee Lang embodies this spirit bar none; she's aone-woman, non-stop writer, artist, editor, promoter and all around human being. Lots of reasons for my gratitude, starting with her championing of small and independent press at Daily s-Press, where she also serves up a health helping of the hippest literary happenings on the web.

Dorothee also edits the fine literary journal BluePrint Review. In keeping with the theme 'two-squared', Issue 25 reveals two poems or stories every two days, allowing readers to savor each artist. Today I am grateful and honored to have my story Second-Hand Video-Cam featured alongside contributions by respected writers and artists, including Michelle Elvy, Kirsty Logan, Rose Hunter, Sheldon Lee Compton, bl pawalek, Susan Gibb, and many others. Take a gander -- you will not be disappointed.

Peace, Linda

  1. Nice story and worthy gratitude, Linda.

    I am grateful for my family, which is apropos of nothing related to your post, other than being a gratitude. It's born of a visit from my brother yesterday, and his family. It was so good to reconnect, if only for a few hours.

  2. I am grateful for all those editors who have taken a chance with an unknown as well - could you imagine the talent we would have been deprived of otherwise?
