FLARE: The Flagler Review

FLARE: The Flagler Review is now accepting submissions for its Fall 2013 issue. Submission deadline is Aug. 15, 2013.

For more information, visit our submissions page.

Hello everyone! Today we’re here with a quick update on the different guest readers at this fall’s launch event on November 15 (for more information, check out the event on Facebook here)!

We are pleased to announce that (so far) two of our contributors will be attending the event! This is very exciting. They will be reading from their own submissions at the launch event.

We also have three faculty members from our own Flagler College that will be presenting! Here are their bios:

Kim Bradley has an MFA in fiction from the University of New Orleans. Her work has appeared in The Southern Indiana Review, The Louisville Review, and Real South Magazine. She is the winner of the 2012 Taos Writers Conference Scholarship in Prose.

Darien Andreu has published short fiction and creative non-fiction in the Princeton Arts Review; Apalachee Quarterly; and Cultures, a Harcourt, Brace, Jovanovich text. She has been a faculty member at Flagler College for 25 years.

As a freelance writer, Lisa Baird has written short stories and articles for readers young and old. After she received her PhD from Texas Christian University, she published critical and creative pieces for the academic community. As the publishing world had turned more toward electronic publication, Baird also has turned her attention to publishing her work on Nook and Kindle for the ebook reader. The creative nonfiction piece, “One Fuji, Two Hawks, Three Eggplants,” appeared in an international anthology entitled Boundaries. Baird continues to submit creative nonfiction pieces to literary journals.

More to come!
