Opportunities for AFL

I'm going to keep this short, seeing as this is the beginning -- or maybe it's the end; I'm not entirely sure at this point -- of finals week. There are some interesting developments I figured I'd share with the lot of you. 

Yesterday afternoon, Rainamoinen and I went to John Brantingham's house. Brantingham is a professor at a local college, Mt. SAC. He is trying to get together an international literary arts festival. As it stands, the festival is scheduled to go on sometime in the beginning of February of 2013. This is an extremely exciting event, and I can't wait for this to happen. So, if anyone here is interested in looking into that, please check out the SGV Literary Arts Festival's Facebook, or visit their website. We'll be present at the festival as representatives of Pomona, so be sure to come out and support us if you can.

Another great opportunity for our magazine is the panel we'll be hosting at Mt. SAC's annual literary arts festival. This is taking place on the third Friday of April during the morning hours. We'll be talking about lit mag stuff, so if you're in the area, come out and feel free to ask us whatever you'd like. We'd be more than happy to have a discussion.

Anyways, I should be going now. Until next time, take care.

  1. Hey yall,

    You don't need to be a Mt. Sac student in order to participate in the writer's weekend, but you do need to fill out an application. You can get one by contacting John Brantingham at jbrantingham@mtsac.edu OR pick one up at the AFLM poetry reading on Friday the 16th at the Coffee Klatch.
    So come on down!
