Attention all Writers--and Readers

A new magazine hits the stands today. It's called the Writer's Cafe and is a "literary" magazine for Jewish writers and readers. I'm reprinting below information that the editor/publisher sent to me. If you're a Hemingway in Hiding or just the reader who would like to read that new "Hemingway" take a look.

"We'll consider various types of personal narrative, too, in addition to fiction, poetry & essays, and might even have an occasional column on science, if sufficiently well-written.

Length 500 - 5000 and even longer--something good enough and too long for one issue can be done in a couple of installments, or serialized (e.g. a novel).

The budget is very tight right now, and the max we're paying for any piece is $50; if finances improve, we'll raise rates as much as prudence permits. We ask for First NA Serial Rights for 90 days from day of publication."

For information or submissions, contact Allen Auster at avmo@worldnet.att.net

Where will they be selling the magazine?

If you write to the editor at the email address in the posting he can tell you what the closest sales outlet to your house is.

Recommend if you like the guy that you don't put up his email address like that. Spambots cull email addresses posted carelessly, and he may end up with a full inbox.

Rather, replace the . with (dot) or something like that to disguise the address.

In Flatbush the magazine will be sold at Ahava newsstand, corner of J and Coney Island Avenue, and also at Eichlers.

Anonymous: thanks for the tip on the email address.
