Towards the Whimsical, Weird, and Edgy: An Interview with Anna Sandy-Elrod, Editor of New South
Get PDFWe all know that you can\u27t judge a book by its cover, yet the cover of the current edition of New South offers readers a strong hint toward the inventive, beautiful, and sometimes strange work found within the journal.

Works first appearing in New South have been anthologized in Best American Poetry, New Stories from the South, Best Small Fictions, New Poetry from the Midwest, and noted in Best American Short Stories and Best of the Net.

On False Notes and Forced Endings
Get PDFSometimes you have to force it. Sometimes you have to fly in the face of your principles and do the things you advise your students—and yourself—never to do. It\u27s the craziest part of being a writer: even the best advice isn\u27t the best advice every time. Sometimes you\u27ve got to break your own rules
Lit Mag is a Beautiful Curation of Creative Pieces; Review of Isthmus, Fall/Winter 2015
Get PDFIsthmus editors Ann Przyzycki and Randy Devita do not include a note to preface, nor is there a stated theme for this, the fourth installment of the magazine. Rather, the works speak for themselves, and for this reader, Isthmus 4 is a beautiful curation of pieces that speak to comings and goings, appendages of spirit gained and lost in the context of family and human connections. All of the pieces together add caveat or context to what it means to be an individual living with and without other individuals. The result is a collection of collisions and capitulations, shutting-ins and striking-outs
Clever Collaboration Highlights Israeli Experience; A Review of The Ilanot Review, Fall 2019, The Collaborative Issue: Translations of Granta Hebrew
Get PDFFor two journals that have only been established in the last decade, Ilanot Review and Granta Hebrew pack a century’s worth of grief and wisdom into their awe-inspiring collaborative issue for Fall 2019. This collaboration, published under the title The Ilanot Review: The Collaborative Issue, represents a break from routine for both journals, as The Ilanot Review is known for its compelling thematic issues and Granta Hebrew for its Hebrew and Arabic extension of the illustrious London-based Granta—the Magazine of New Writing. The editors have compiled a brilliant whirlwind of poetry, prose, and memoir that pulls pieces from the earliest archives of Granta Hebrew, resulting in an issue that is outstanding for its ability to express facets of the Israeli experience. Seek out this magazine wherever you can find it; come for the aching prose pieces about individual culture clashes and identity crises, and stay for the poetry cataloguing the pain and beauty of Israeli history. This magazine is a beautiful example of the wonder that can happen when two modern journals join forces, and I’m here for every word of it

Veteran Journal Showcases Craft through Standout Prose and Poetry: Review of Ecotone, Fall/Winter 2017
Get PDFIf there ever was a single way to pay homage to the many different types of handmade art, Ecotone does it with Issue 24: Craft. Opening the issue with a comforting message on writers’ need for resilience from the editor-in-chief, and ending with a thought on craft from each contributor, Issue 24 shows just how crafty, how chameleon-like, craft can be
Spirituality and Servant-Leadership in Teaching Developmental Mathematics
Get PDFThe purpose of this article is threefold: (a) to describe how spirituality, conceptually informed by servant-leadership, manifests in our teaching practices, (b) to describe how those practices enact support and empathy, which enables our students to succeed in the technical subject of developmental mathematics, and (c) to report our perceptions of student success. We employed a duoethnographic methodology to respond to a common set of questions, highlighting our similarities and differences. In this exchange we explored the setting of our practice, noting disparities between the two-year institutions where we worked. We concluded our experiences, framed through servant-leadership, and described a classroom atmosphere of respect, sensitivity and encouragement for our students. These classroom characteristics are foundational to challenging and supporting students in these courses
