When Jerry Craven and I started Amarillo Bay back in 1999, we had no idea what was ahead. Could we get editors for Fiction, Creative Nonfiction, and Poetry? Would they (and we) get tired of the work after a few issues? The result is that after more than 15 years we we have not missed a quarter. In that time we have published over 660 works! (As of this issue, on that page you can sort by author, work, type, and volume.) I find it astonishing that we have gone on for so long and published so much.
As to getting tired of doing it every quarter: Jerry (as Managing Editor) and I (Publisher), along with the original Fiction Editor, Richard Moseley, are still here. Our Creative Nonfiction Editors have been Jeff Todd (March 1999 - May 2001), H. Palmer Hall (August 2001 - February 2005), and Rebecca Balcárcel (March 2005 - now). For Poetry Editor, we've had Sandra Gail Teichmann (March 1999 - February 2000),Sherry Craven (March 2001 - August 2003), Jerry Craven (November 2003 - May 2004), Jeffrey DeLotto (June 2004 -August 2012), and Laura Kennelly (November 2012 - May 2014).
We are pleased to announce that, starting with the August issue, our new Poetry Editor is Katherine Hoerth.
You can read biographies of all of our editors on the About page by hovering your mouse over their name, or on your phone by clicking their name.
When he submitted his stories for me to typeset, our Fiction editor Richard Moseley said that they were a morose group. Well, they aren't the cheeriest stories we've ever published, but they are wonderfully written and I think will repay your attention. We have two works of Creative Nonfiction, one about dealing with the government and the other about dealing with a brother. I guess they're pretty morose, too. The Poetry runs the gamus from slightly shocking to cheery and sensual. I think that's a good mix.
Enjoy the new issue!
Be sure to check out previous issues at the bottom of the Contents page. There are over 660 works available from the quarterly issues we have published since 1999.
