Our staff is starting to meld. But we are looking for outside submissions. Write something or go through your stuff and find something you already wrote and submit, submit, submit.
You must submit to Bohemia. (We are super interested in Rocket/Outer space poetry... and I would like to see some creative writing pieces come in about road trips for the summer. Stories, no more than 2000 words.)
We've got 3 staff writers, a business manager, a lay-out designer, an art director, ad sales manager, gal about town (Lisa, that would be you)... and me. We also have several people wanting to submit some stuff. Once we start getting it in... we will put it on panel and decide what to put in each issue. Submit your photography and we might make it a FRONT PAGE PICTURE.
I can't wait for our first issue to come out. Cool stories in the works... really a little bit for everyone looking for some arts and culture. We are so downtown and we don't even know it, baby.
I teach 2nd grade from Monday through Friday but the weekends are all about Bohemia. :D
Waco will love Bohemia because Bohemia loves Waco.
Keep Waco Wacko. Bohemia.
Since it was the first staff meeting at my house, I bought beer (good beer), wine, crackers, carrots, artichoke dip, humus, white cheddar salsa, subs, tortilla chips, Milano cookies, Sun Drop soda, canned tea, water. Oh, and cheeses. A display of cheeses. I hope people enjoyed it.
And I hope that you will enjoy my ramblings about Bohemia and what I am working on in order to create the magazine. This is a blog about the production of a magazine, a behind the scenes type of thing.
I have been an editor before, but I have never owned my own business nor have I published a journal.... so this is a new and exciting adventure. BUT... so far, everyone is willing to help out and pitch in. It is fun. Bohemia.
It would be cool to film a video about starting up this publication as well. It could be a web series. (Thumbs up!) Bohemia! I would like to get about 5 more people on staff. I am specifically looking for an assistant, a web page designer & tech guru, a cinematographer for the Bohemia web series (hey, why not?), marketing & PR person, and head of submissions.
