This week was rather interesting in that it was unceremoniously interrupted by a gigantic snowstorm that swept across the Chicago area. Suburbs and the city alike were buried under nearly two feet of snow. In some ways this was good, in some ways it was simply odd. It was good, of course, because it gave me two snow days away from campus. But, the snow days made it a bit difficult to concentrate on the literary journal.
Luckily, everyone was on campus on Monday for our intern meeting. We exchanged more submissions that had come to our email address. Monday was also the deadline for writing submissions to the journal, so it’s time to begin seriously looking at the submissions and deciding what we’re going to include. Personally, I feel like this is going to be the most difficult part of my internship — actually creating the publication and getting it online on schedule.
