Online, CL makes a new space for itself, including full content of the publication as well as multimedia add-ons. Colorado Review (Spring 2008) is graced with many “new and new-to-these-pages writers: Leslie Johnson, Dan Thrapp, Edward Porter, Adrianne Harun and Peter Selgin. Donald Revell, poetry editor, comments that the poetry is “of pause, of indrawn breath and prayerful anxiety”: Amelia Klein, Katherine Factor, and Brenda Hillman among the contributors. “A journal of humanity and human experience,” Bellevue Literary Review features the 2008 BLR Prize Winners in addition to an “unusually large number of stories and essays from children’s perspectives. These writings give us a sense of illness, loss, and sexuality through youthful eyes.” And new to this issue, BLR book reviews!

American Book Review (March/April 2008) features “In Focus: Jass & Lit” with a double feature celebrating National Poetry Month. Included are Christina Milletti on Sara Greenslit, J.D. Smith on Dagoberto Gilb, Joyelle McSweeney on Selah Saterstrom, Kostas Myrsiades on Titos Patrikios and Arias-Misson on the Venice Biennale. A personal favorite of mine, Open Minds Quarterly is “Your psychosocial literary journal.” This issue (Winter 2008) features Steven Lappen’s essay on recovery, Cailean Darkwater’s essay on “the senseless and the ignorant,” and “Life as a Long-Term Schizophrenic” by Mark Ellerby, along with load of poetry and fiction. The Christian quarterly of expression, relief (Volume 2 Issue 1) with “an angelic boxer, a severed hand, and a wheeled cross” includes Mario Susko, Helen W. Mallon, Linda MacKillop, David Borofka, Rick Mullin, Alison Smythe, J. Stephen Rhodes, and more. Don’t let the newsprint format fool you The Threepenny Review is a heavyweight. Only to name a few, the Spring 2008 issue offers “A Symposium on Editing” with Frederick Wismena, Walter Murch, Christopher Ricks, Zachary Leader, poetry by Frank Bidart, Henry Cole and Louise Gluck, fiction by Wendell Berry, and prints by Edward Hopper. The Laurel Review biannual winter ’08 issue is cover to cover poetry and prose from 50 contributors: Sarah Vap, G.C. Waldrep, Patrick Madden, Jennifer Grotz, Beckian Fritz Goldberg – can’t name enough. Definitely poetry heavy, with the inclusion of a Poetry Portfolio, selected by Contributing Editor Martha Rhodes. Published by Phi Beta Kapp, American Scholar transverses the border of literature and critical political thought. The Spring 2008 issues features “Global Burning: What we can do about a new ages of megafires,” by Stephen J. Pyne; “Frederick Douglass Forgives: Honoring the emotions that lead to liberal principles” by Nick Bromell; “Reading Scientifically” by Brian Boyd; and other essays contributed by Allan Gurganus and Janna Malamud Smith, fiction, poetry, and art. In its second year, from Pacific University in Oregon, Silk Road is an annual “journal of writings on place.” This issue is deep into poetry, but also includes nonfiction (2), fiction (1), an interview with John Remember, and color and B&W photography in a glossy center section. From Eastern Kentucky University, the 2007 annual edition of The Chaffin Journal is packed with works from 59 authors, alas only one from each.

Issue 53 of Whiskey Island Magazine features 2007 first place contest winners in poetry, Michael Colonnese, and fiction, Karen Kotrba, among others, as well as art/photography.

Beautiful Hayden’s Ferry Review 41 (Fall/Winter 2007-08) features loads of poetry, including Jericho Brown, Karen Kevorkian, and Arra Lynn Ross, fiction by Sarah Berkensmeyer and Phillip Gardner, and several side-by-side (the best kind) translation pieces. Art is generously afforded both a color section and B&W throughout, and Craig Blais is named “AWP Intro Award” winner for his poem “About Crows.” Focusing on “Faith in Literature in Art,” Ruminate explores the theme of Addiction with the fiction of Linda McCullough Moore, an essay by Christopher J. Gaumer, poetry by Jeffry Davis, and art by Deanne Moulten.  The writing is on the page when it comes to Cave Wall, whose poems and art in this issue "exemplify the blessings and trials of diversity." Michale Gaspeny, Gail Peck, Bill Blackley, William Greenway and Tracy Smith are here, just to name a few. Published by Southeastern Louisiana University, Louisiana Literature goes way poetry heavy with 30 poets, 2 fiction authors, and 1 reviewer. Interestingly enough, in the list of contributors, there is a serious lack of “publication listing” –  teachers, writers, editors, “lives in,” and even one "search-and-rescue dog handler" fill this issue. (Word is that LL will now be going on a one-year hiatus.) Say it, spell it – GUD – I’ll go with the full name, Greatest Uncommon Denominator (Issue 2 - Spring 2008) is fiction, art and poetry. Find inside Jeff Somers, Samantha Henderson, Hugh Fox, Mike Capp, Tina Connolly and newel anderson, among many others. The annual PMS, or break it down to Poem Memoir Story (number eight, 2008), with guest editor Honorée Fanonne Jeffers features an interview with Natasha Trethewey, poetry by Lucille Clifton, Patricia Spears Jones, Tara Betts, Nikki Giovanni, and Edwidge Danticat, memoir by Danticat again and others, and story by Ada Udechukwu, Jeffers, Jacinda Townsend and more. American Literary Review (Fall 2007) balances its pages with some big guns in fiction, poetry, and nonfiction, like Tom Chandler, Jeffrey Levine, Khaled Mattawa, Daneen Wardrop, and - I can't name them all! Filling a literary void, The Long Story (number 26) continues on with contributions included from Courtney Walsh, Marsha Lee Berkman, Darrin Doyle, Ben Brooks. Not only that, but they do publish poetry – from Jared Carter, Laurel Speer and Sonja Skarstedt. All the same, poetry takes the back seat in this ride in terms of numbers (page and author).

The Literary Review: An International Journal of Contemporary Writing (Winter 2008) editor Walter Cummins claims "No authors were violated in the creation of this issue."

The Fall 2007 issue of Iron Horse Literary Review was the last of the "old"  biannual format - but don't miss its interview with Alan Shapiro and "discovered voice" of Luke Rolfes. Iron Horse now begins publishing six slim chapbooks a year, the first is the Valentine Issue 2008. The phoenix American Short Fiction celebrates its 40th issue with a reunion of former contributing authors: Kate Braverman, Dagoberto Gilb, Michael Guista, Don Lee, and Joyce Carol Oates. Some are included in "A Retrospective - Former contributors speak for themselves about their memories, their work, and where their work has led them" since publication in ASF. Greenprints "The Weeder's Digest" (Spring 2008) looks at real rose fanatics, love & butterflies, and spouse spats. Contemporary Verse 2: The Canadian Journal of Poetry and Critical Writing touts the theme Poetry as Mirror: Reflections on the Body. Interviews with Jim Nason and Jan Conn and a "marvelous essay" by Tanis MacDonald bring some reprieve from the cold Canadian winter. Spencer Reece graces the cover of The American Poetry Review for March/April 2008, and is joined inside by the likes of Joyelle McSweeney, Kazim Ali, Grace Paley, Thomas Lux, Reb Livingston, Clayton Eshleman and Kevin Prufer. Keyhole has hit issue two (Winter 2008) with a mix of well-knowns like Eric Spitznagel, Michael Kimball, Myfawnwy Collins, and Jason Cook with some newbies. Slim, but pow-packed. A Magazine of Personal Expression, The Rambler (Mar/Apr 2008) mixes it up with short fiction, poetry, photos, personal stories and an interview with cartoonist Tom Batiuk (Funky Winkerbean). Just in time for the upcoming sports void, Issue 59 of Oxford American is the Sports Issue, with Kane Webb on horseracing, and a poem by John Updike on baseball. New fiction by Mark Edmundson, Mary Miller and M.O. Walsh and "Sports in the South" by various writers is also included. George Singleton's Speaking on Writing will no doubt speak to many with his "How to Write Stories...And lose weight, clean up the environment, and make a million dollars."
