Welcome

 

Welcome to the March 2009 issue of eMuse.  As the preparations for each issue draw to a close, and we scamper around like mice in search of those final details that need fine tuning, there is a sense of amazement when our awesome team steps up to the plate to make sure we’re all where we need to be before we launch the issue.  It isn’t easy sometimes.  With family and employment responsibilities, staying on top of the submissions, finding artists to contribute and making sure we get all of our paperwork back from our contributors before we go live on the fifteenth.  Every quarter, however, we manage to get the job done, and each issue is more exciting than the last.

 

At present, our team is also working on putting together a new web site, complete with workshopping abilities and full forum that we hope to launch within the next few weeks.  In honor of this exciting news, we are going to be offering a contest with some fabulous prizes.  Along with prizes, our winning contributors will also be featured in an upcoming issue of eMuse.  Stay tuned for more details.

 

And now without further ado, I hope you enjoy this issue’s contributions.  Nicole Ireland shows us not only how easy it is to earn money from home as a freelance writer, but how to manage your time for the best results.  We’ve got poetry by David Kowalcyzk, Doug Mathewson, Ray Succre, Anne Brooke and Tomás Ó Cárthaigh.  Our featured artist this issue is Andrew Kaufman, who creates unique pieces with hand-painted thumb tacks.  Janet Yung and Jennifer Hudock offer their fictional contributions, begging us to question that which we think we know before we pass final judgment.
