R212. Managing Literary Magazine Editorial Transitions

Room 006A, Henry B. González Convention Center, River Level
Thursday, March 5, 2020
1:45 pm to 3:00 pm

 

Literary magazines undergo constant change, whether it's the expected turnover of editors at student-run publications or the unexpected change of an editor moving on from a place she's been for years. Panelists with a range of experience in print and online journals will explore best practices for managing these transitions, whether expected or unexpected.
