If you're a student at SCC who's ventured into the 700 building any time since last week, you've likely gotten a chance to see a revamping going on in our display case!
Check out the flyers with information about submitting that you can find around there, too, if you haven't! Actually, if you haven't voted, make sure you do so!
Deadline is March 31st! Happy submitting!

ANNNNND We're Off!
...to the start of voting on actual submissions that is. After our editors met again for the first time after a long one week break, (Do we sound like absolute bums yet?) we seem like we're all set to start judging the real things.
That said, we've moved into phase one of the operation: Most of our currently submitted work is viewable to our editors to start chit chattering away and reading. We know for a fact a great deal of them were anxious to get out of the kiddie stuff/practice discussions and onto the big boys.
So! If you submitted to us this year (and, uh, why shouldn't you? Our submissions are open to everyone, after all!) you're bound to start hearing from us soon!
Happy submitting!

Hibernation's Over!
It's that time of year again! You know, where you submit to your favorite literary magazine: Suisun Valley Review!
Much like bears, squirrels, other woodland beasts, and tortoises, SVR's editor committee takes a break about accepting and reviewing submissions until the spring. But with the arrival of Solano Community College's spring semester, so comes the arrival of this year's batch of editors! We're all super jazzed to get to work on reviewing submissions, and are very likely to jump right into that in the following weeks. Until then, submit!
Submissions are open to anyone, SCC student or not!, until March 31st, 2013!
You can check out our Facebook page for more details. (And friend us while you're at it! We're a social bunch!)

A Salute to SVR
The magazine is complete. That means it’s time for me to get
really sentimental and teary-eyed.
The release reading was a happy success! We were pleased to
welcome several of our authors, such as Laura Oliver, Ashleigh Cowan, and
Nicholas Cittadino (a counselor at Solano Community College!). And we were also
happy to meet the artist of the image we chose as our cover, Rita Okusako!
You all had the opportunity to see the cover (in very tiny
form) on the SVR release reading poster, but here it is in all its glory:
Before I end my last blog (sniff) I would like to extend
a few thanks. Firstly, thank you to everyone who has been following along with
our adventure via this blog, and put up with my jokes both good and bad.
I
would also like to thank all of those who worked so diligently on this magazine
all semester long—including our editors, our advisor, our school’s graphics
department, and the Sacramento-based binder that put together the pieces with
such great care. (As well as many others that I'm sure I have neglected—when you're but one cog, it's hard to see the whole machine!)
And I would lastly (but not leastly!) would like to extend a
thank-you to everyone who submitted: we would not have a magazine without you.

It's Almost Here!
Yes, one week from today we will be releasing the 29th issue of the Suisun Valley Review! It will be available for all to buy and read beginning at 2 o'clock next Friday (the 18th) at our release reading. I've been dropping regular hints about this reading over the last month or two, and even in its planning stages it's starting to look spectacular.
We have a good number of poems and stories to be read by a variety of people. Some will be read by our very own editors, but many will likely be read by their writers! Other things to look forward to are: the winner and honorable mention of the Quinton Duval Award in Creative Writing will be announced; Patricia Killelea will be joining us again, and will be reading poetry featured in this issue; and of course, the delicious, home-baked cookies!
On behalf of all the editors of the Suisun Valley Review, we hope to see you all there!
