from Lauren Bender

I am the new Editor for WORD at PEEKreview online (www.peekreview.net). As a venue it's just getting off the ground, but is essentially the online manifestation--or incarnation--of radarreview (www.radarreview.com). In other words, it's a more far-reaching survey of arts and culture, with Baltimore at its core.

WORD is the contemporary poetry section, and this is my first call for entries. Right now we can only support html and word documents, which unfortunately rules out some great visual stuff for now, but we're working on it.

No constraints (other than those above); please send anything cross-genre, boundary-pushing, unfittable-in-other-venues, or just plain neat-o, to me, at:

lauren(at)peekreview(dot)net

Upcoming calls will include more specific collaborations and "themes" (don't you hate that word?), but for now, I'm just looking for a great first go.

Thanks in advance,
Lauren
