So, first, some happy news. A story I wrote, "My Mother is a Lunar Crater," which was a runner up for lovely Calyx journal's Margarita Donnelly Prize for Prose Writing in 2018, is out in their Spring 2020 edition (Vol: 31:3). It can also be read here: www.calyxpress.org/md-prize-2018-runner-up-khan/
Second, a huge shout out to this independent press for continuing to nurture art and literature in a very difficult time, when even the most committed among us are struggling to find structure. Calyx is one of few literary journals devoted exclusively to the work of women. And it's been around for some decades. We want this to continue. So, please, consider ordering a copy, with the gorgeous cover by Dale Champlin : www.calyxpress.org/shop/31-3/
As Tayari Jones recently said, "Airlines and big companies are getting bailouts but writers aren't." Support those that support writers and artists.
