News from the Editor:
I would like to congratulate two of the writers whose work
appeared in our Spring 2007 issue. “Pageant Queen,” an
essay by J. W. Young, and “Island Fever,” a poem by
Edward Byrne, were selected by series editor Nathan Leslie
and guest editor Steve Almond for Best of the Web 2008.
This print anthology, published by Dzanc Books, was released
in July 2008. It is available for order from the Dzanc website,
retail sites online, or your local bookstore.
I would also like to congratulate Kathy Anderson, the recipient
of the Apple Valley Review Editor’s Prize for 2008. Her short
story, “You Are the Bad Smell,” was published in our Spring
2008 issue. All work published in the Apple Valley Review
during a given calendar year is considered for this annual award.
Anderson will receive $100 and a gift of a book of poetry or fiction.
The Apple Valley Review is an online literary journal. It is published
twice annually, once in spring and once in fall. Each issue features a
collection of poetry, short fiction, and essays.
