Meet Our New Senior Fiction Editor, Linda Simoni-Wastila!

We’ve been holding our tongue in agony for weeks about this one, and now we can shout it from the rooftops! We’re excited to announce that Linda Simoni-Wastila has been promoted to Senior Fiction Editor here at jmww. She’ll be taking the reigns when we begin reading next weekfor the winter issue of jmww. (Wondering where the special fall issue [packed with poetry] went? It’s still in the whistle-blowin’, issue-maker machine and should be up around 9/24.) Anyway, time to send Linda your best stories; she’s waiting for them here.
