We have a potpourri of updates to share:

1. CALLS OPEN, CALLS CLOSE. The deadline for art and writing for our three Spring 2011 issues expires tomorrow, February 17, 2011. We've received a good response to that call; editor Mojie Crigler is finalizing selections for those issues in the next couple of weeks. (If you submitted work to one of those issues, you will hear from Mojie by March 11, 2011 at the latest if your work has been selected).

Next up, on February 18, we'll begin accepting submissions for the Summer, 2011 issues: GAMES & PUZZLES! THE TRAVEL ISSUE! IMAGE!. You can find our updated call and guidelines here.

2. LINKS! RESOURCES! AN INTERVIEW! We are remiss though in not having a set of links posted on Status Hat, to sites where readers, writers and artists can find more literary and arts online journals, and other resources and inspiration for their creative work! A couple of particularly good resources, if you haven't already found them:

Duotrope's Digest - Large listing of current publications for fiction & poetry, and more resources;
NewPages.com - Reviews, guides & more for independent publications & literary/alternative mags.

You'll not only find Status Hat on Duotrope Digest, here, but they also recently posted an interview with us: Status Hat - Editor Interview. If curiosity strikes, you can quickly jump to answers to the same questions from other editors.

3. ARCHIVE GALLERY! We'll post a more comprehensive set of links & resources soon; meanwhile, we've been working on getting more of our archives back online -- you can find all the issues currently available at this link: Gallery of Back Issues.

4. DOWNLOADS! We've also just returned a download section to our site, to make more media, publications and resources available -- from music and other media, to creative resource kits. Currently, it features some music from the Status Hat archives, a band Tim Castellani (our executive producer) played with in Syracuse, NY, Yosemite Quick. Look to the media and downloads section for more offerings soon!

And, last, we are excited to be moving forward on some new publications! Stay tuned...
