DesiLit - The Magazine! Call for Staff...
So, some of us in the Kriti planning group were thinking about what we want to do with DesiLit next year, and the idea of an online magazine came up. Since DesiLit grew partly out of SAPAC (Chicago's South Asian Progressive Action Collective), we were thinking that what might be most interesting would be a magazine devoted to politics and literature -- we would publish fiction, poetry, book reviews, and literary criticism, but also political writing of interest to S. Asians. Maybe even a bit of art.
To make that happen, we need volunteers -- to do periodic updates of the website, to read and edit the material that comes in, to manage the schedule and keep everyone on track. We may also need money, depending on whether we decide to pay, but that's a separate issue.
This is a call right now for interested parties who would possibly would like to be on the staff of the magazine. Please note: if you join the staff, you won't be able to publish poetry or fiction or art with us. So only volunteer if you're okay with that. Aside from the webmaster job, no experience is necessary; we'll work in groups and can train each other on editing and the like. If interested, please join our planning group. Thanks!
