It’s June, and we at LR<\/em> are rounding off our seventh month of blogging.\u00a0 Here are some new things that you can expect to see from us this month:<\/p>\n

Issue 1 Is Coming!<\/strong><\/p>\n

We are very pleased to announce that Issue 1 of our magazine will be released — if all goes as planned — on Monday, June 14th.\u00a0 We have been working very hard on curating and laying out the more than 30 poems and visual art pieces that we’ve selected, and can’t wait to show you the final product.\u00a0 Check back on the blog for sneak peeks and other updates in the next week or so.<\/p>\n

June 2010 Community Calendar is Live<\/strong><\/p>\n

We’ve updated the Community Calendar<\/a> for the month of June, and as usual, we welcome any corrections and additions that you may have for us.\u00a0 This month, we’re pleased to be able to feature some cool Asian American literary events happening in Minneapolis, in addition to the cities we regularly cover:\u00a0 June 7th is the registration deadline for the amazing-sounding Lao American Writers’ Conference that will be held at the LOFT Literary Center this August; the LOFT will also be holding an event featuring graphic novelist Gene Yang on June 18th. We look forward to continuing to cover events at the LOFT in future months.<\/p>\n

June <\/strong>LR <\/strong><\/em>Blog Features: Barbara Jane Reyes, <\/strong>Indivisible, <\/strong><\/em>and More
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

During the past three months, we’ve mostly focused on themed posts, but this summer we’ll be returning to our regular blog content.\u00a0 Some things to anticipate: our staff writer Ada Yee recently had the opportunity to conduct an interview with Barbara Jane Reyes — look out for her remarks about poetry, history, and community on the blog tomorrow; we also had the pleasure of meeting some of the editors of Indivisible<\/a> <\/em>(the first-ever anthology of South Asian American poetry) back in April, and are excited to announce that during the next couple of months, our staff writer Supriya Misra will be running a couple of feature posts on their work.\u00a0 We’ll also be continuing with weekly prompts and with our editorial columns Friends & Neighbors and Editors’ Picks.<\/p>\n

Thank you so much, once again, for all you’ve done in responding to our posts and spreading the word about us.\u00a0 We are so <\/em>thrilled to finally be rounding the home stretch into Issue 1 — and are ever grateful for your support.<\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n

Iris & Mia
