IWW Members' Publishing Successes



Pamelyn Casto

I'm pleased to say that my prose poem, "Telling It Slant," is re-published today in Better Than Starbucks' latest issue (the May/June issue).

My prose poem was originally published in Mindprints and at that time it was also nominated for a Pushcart Prize. But this is the first time it's been published online. I'm pleased to see it again.

(And how I appreciate the magazines/ journals that consider previously published work.)

I guess this will be the last time I get to announce my essays at OPEN: Journal of Arts & Letters since they've now promoted me to Associate Editor of Flash Discourse (I *was* a contributing editor). So that's my one bit of news (my promotion to associate editorship).

My other news is my essay The Myth-ing Link (Or Linking Up To Myth) went live this morning. It was originally published in Field Guide to Writing Flash Fiction: Tips From Editors, Teachers, and Writers in the Field, (published by Rose Metal Press, 2009, Edited by Tara L. Masih) so I'm happy another editor saw good reason to run it. (My essay has never appeared online before.)

"Gasoline," my first published piece of Creative Nonfiction, appears in issue #9 of The Lindenwood Review, the literary journal of Lindenwood University in St. Charles, Missouri.

Written long before joining IWW, I’ve tinkered with this story almost twenty-three years before arriving at the latest version. It's about playing with matches and gasoline - you can probably guess how it goes.
