Louisiana Conference

Hello everyone!

We are still in need of a few more volunteers to help work the table for Rougarou and the Southwestern Review at the Louisiana Conference this year. If you are interested in helping, please send me an e-mail in the next day or so. Towards the end of this week I intend to contact those that have already volunteered to setup a work schedule as I know a lot of us will already be helping out with the conference in various ways. I plan to have a tentative volunteer schedule out by either Saturday or Sunday.

The conference will be held from March 29th through the 31st. If you haven't visited the website for it yet, just click here: http://english.louisiana.edu/laconference/

Best wishes,

Joel T. Terranova

The Southwestern Review: The Phoenix Edition (Journal)

The Southwestern Review is UL-Lafayette’s in-house literary journal edited by graduate and undergraduate students in Creative Writing. It features poetry, short fiction, non-fiction, and drama by faculty, graduate students, and undergraduates, and is illustrated with student art work. As 2012 approaches, we mark yet another round of apocalyptic predictions. And considering the religious, technological, environmental, and political scares of the past as well as the ones surely headed our way in the future, we must admit that this fascination with "The End" is no passing fad. So we'd like to know more about it. In fact, we'd really like to see your take on "The End" of things, particularly what happens after "The End." In other words, we're looking for creative pieces that look at a moment of irrevocable change and its consequences. Officially known as the Phoenx Edition, the 2012 issue of The Southwestern Review will be based around the theme of postapocalyptic regrowth or regeneration.
