Bulletin
Welcome to The Vincent Brothers Company
Bulletin!
EFFECTIVE AUGUST 1, 2004:
The Vincent Brothers Company
is pleased to announce that the new editor/publisher of The
Vincent Brothers Review is Rafael Alvarez of Baltimore,
Maryland. Alvarez,
founder of “The Story Company” and recipient of a 2004
Maryland Arts Council creative writing individual artist grant,
will post the new TVBR submission guidelines, address, deadlines,
and upcoming themes on TVBR Web site December 15, 2004. Tune in to
our website on that date for further information.
To get an idea for the new
directions Alvarez will take TVBR,
please visit his website.
Kimberly Willardson, founding editor of TVBR,
will retain directorship of The Vincent Brothers Company, but has
moved the company office to North Carolina,
where she is pursuing new career opportunities. She and Alvarez
will consult together on “transitional” Issue #24 before
Alvarez takes over editorial reins for Issue #25. Associate Editor
Roger Willardson is also pursuing new career opportunities in
North Carolina. Poetry
Editor Nick Obis is pursuing new career opportunities in Chicago
and will also collaborate on the “transitional” Issue #24.
Associate Editor Michelle
Whitley Turner is devoting more time to her own writing,
as well as pursuing her career as a technical writer at Bowser-Morner.
Art Editor Jud Yalkut has moved to Bellbrook,
Ohio, and is pursuing his varied and interesting visual arts
projects.
Please note that the Ohio,
address of TVBR is no longer valid and mail sent to that address
will be “Returned to Sender.” Again, the new address for
submissions will be announced December 15, 2004. All manuscripts,
submission guideline requests, and other queries are being
returned in the order in which they were received.
The Vincent Brothers Company
is still seeking funds for our collector’s book of ekphrastic
poetry based on the holdings of the Dayton Arts Institute. Once
funding has been received, those poets who already submitted
material will be notified.
All sample copies,
subscriptions, and recent copies must be purchased on our Web site
via PayPal.
Hey!!!!!! Don’t go away. Stay tuned.
TVBR is undergoing quite a few changes—all for the good.
May 2004: Our PayPal ordering has gotten
easier to use! Some of those who tried to order back issues of
TVBR or copies of Lose Them If You Can had trouble ordering
because their sessions expired too quickly, so we’re
happy to say we’ve
solved that problem. TVBC tote bags and T-shirts will be available
very soon, as will online
ordering for David Garrison’s
Inside the Sound of Rain. Stay tuned!
January 2004: The Vincent Brothers Company is pleased to
announce the release of Deanna Pickard’s
haunting new collection of poetry, Lose Them If You Can, a
nominee for the 2003 Ohioana Library Association Book Award in
Poetry. The online poetry magazine Poetry
Daily featured the poem “Appearances”
from the book on Sunday, March 14, 2004. To learn more about the enchanting Lose Them If You Can
and find out how order a copy using PayPal,
click here.
PayPal is here! If you have a PayPal account,
you can now order subscriptions to The Vincent Brothers Review,
current and back issues of the magazine, and copies of Deanna
Pickard’s Lose Them If You Can at TVBC’s
Online Bookstore. You can also use it
to make a donation to The Vincent Brothers Company and help us
fund the magazine as well as exciting new projects like Lose
Them If You Can and our forthcoming anthology of poetry
inspired by works at the Dayton Art Institute.
Lend us a hand!
The Vincent Brothers Review will be on hiatus until July
2005, as the TVBR staff is temporarily preoccupied with other
projects and relocating to new cities. We will NOT accept new submissions until
January,
so any submissions received before that date will be returned
unopened. However, in the
meantime, we WILL continue to process new subscriptions and back issue and book orders, of course.
Please check back to this site January 2005, for further details,
which will include an address change and staff updates. Thank you. We
look forward to hearing from you next year!
The next Dead Poets Dance, Live Poets Read TVBR benefit party will be held in October 2005
somewhere on the East Coast. Like the
first two benefit parties, the third one will feature live poets
reading, great food, music
(probably country-fiddle swing music this
time around), dancing, a silent
auction, raffles, and prizes for the
best dead poets costume. And, of course,
“Dead Poets Dance, Live Poets Read” T-shirts will be available for purchase. Stay tuned for
details.
