Meet The Editors March 21
Hiya. I will be going to this on March 21 if any of the Word Pirates want to come along.

The San Francisco Bay Area claims the highest concentration of literary journals in the United States, publishing hundreds of new works of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction each year.
Editors read thousands of manuscripts, culling the pieces that will define their publications. Many writers who publish in literary journals go on to publish books, win awards, and establish careers. At the least—we hope—they keep writing.
But what about the editors?
Does it pay? Is it hard? Does it hurt? Are they crazy?
Meet the editors.
