Letter from the Editor – February 2014

Dear Readers,
Here at Bloomsbury we are in the midst of open call madness. To date, we’ve received about 50 proposals but judging from the 2012 open call, almost 80% of the proposals come in during the last 48 hours before the deadline.  You’ve got less than 1 week until the March 3rd deadline. I love what I see so far.

-This week we’re sending Ethan Hayden’s brilliant treatise on language and communication disguised as a 33 1/3 on Sigur Ros off to production. We’ll publish “Sigur Ros’s ( ) in late august.
