Perhaps we ought to pursue a Drama editor, again.  As I was glancing through the list of possible themed issues for the next couple years, I couldn't help but think it would be nice to round up such an interested person.  Maybe post another call-for-drama editor on the list is in order, if you've got the old qualifications spiel ready and available.
 
Shoot--maybe Eric D. Snyder would be game!!!  He's got to write for something/someone.  I know he's got his own site, but maybe he could field submissions and rustle up some "drama stuff," and stuff.  Yeah.  Who should approach him about the idea?  I don't know him personally?  Maybe we could get him to serve for two years or something, so he didn't feel like he was selling his life away.  Or, maybe he's interested in doing it for a while....

Just a thought on some special Irreantum issues next year.  I'd like to do
an issue on creative/literary nonfiction (but am not ready this year).
>>>

Sounds great. You might talk to Gideon Burton on this, as he has discussed a similar idea and might like to help compile and edit the issue. How does summer 2004 sound? (Deadline June 15, 2004.)

<<<
It would be interesting to still do an all-film issue, perhaps after this
year's round of film.

Unless I hear otherwise, I'm counting on this for the winter 2003-04 issue (deadline Dec. 15, 2003).

<<<
Also, Mormon horror!  Ooh, scary (perhaps a summer
2004 issue to come out before Halloween, though we could do it whenever).
>>>

Definitely sounds very intriguing. Is there enough in this area for a whole issue? (I know it's been discussed lately on AML-List, but I admit I didn't follow it closely.)

<<<
A translation issue, where we take works from many different
languages/cultures and find folks to translate them.  It would take some
work, but in a year or two from now it could be put together.
>>>

Sounds like a noble idea, but I don't have any idea of what pieces we'd translate and how the logistics would work.

<<<
Perhaps a combined issue with drama and film, with interviews, reviews, one act plays,
parts of screenplays, etc.
>>>

I think drama is a big enough area for its own special issue, actually. I was disappointed we didn't find a drama editor. But maybe we can get someone to spearhead a special issue. I'd say this is a top priority, maybe for the winter 2004-05 issue (deadline Dec. 15, 2004.)

<<<
We haven't seen sci-fi/fantasy for a couple
years.
>>>


<<<
Spiritual memoir anybody? (I might like to head something like
that.)
>>>

Isn't this a subset of creative/literary nonfiction? Or would it need its own issue?

<<<
Mormon folklore is another, we could get a guest editor.
>>>

This one has lots of potential, if we could get the right editor.

Yeah, both are good ideas. I'd expand the missionary one to include nonfiction memoir.

Thanks, Travis! I'm keeping this list for future reference.

Yes.

I still need to plug in some stuff that Marny sent me and then I can open it up to the rest of the editorial team. I also need to create the departmental email addresses so editors can use them to communicate with authors/submitters. I know I sounded very gung-ho about Irreantum.org at our editorial board meeting, and then not much has happened with it in the past month. I apologize for the slowdown. Most of my sluggishness can be attributed to the fact that I was studying for the GRE and working on grad school applications. The applications are still in progress, but the GRE was last week, so I now have some free time to dedicate to getting the site up and running. I'll make some progress on the site this week and send an email to this list with directions about how to get involved. Thanks for the kick in the pants, Travis and Chris. I needed it.

------_=_NextPart_001_01C38EA5.112FF710-- -- Irreantum Editor's Discussion List ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Quinn Warnick" Subject: [irr-ed] Irreantum.org email addresses Date: 09 Oct 2003 17:05:49 -0400 I have (finally) set up email addresses for each of the editors. If you are interested in having a "irreantum.org" email address to use when working with authors, instructions for configuring your account follow below. If you choose not to use the email address for your department, please respond to me with the email address you'd like to use and I will make sure all mail to your departmental address gets forwarded to you. Chris, I see this as an easy way for you to forward submissions. All incoming material can be directed to editor@irreantum.org, and then you can forward pieces as needed to departmental editors, whose email addresses will all be similar. This will also create some continuity when editorial board members change. I have set up the following accounts: editor@irreantum.org -- Chris Bigelow fiction@irreantum.org -- Quinn Warnick poetry@irreantum.org -- Harlow Clark reviews@irreantum.org -- Jana Remy essay@irreantum.org -- Travis Manning film@irreantum.org -- D. Michael Martindale speculative@irreantum.org -- Scott and Marny Parkin If you've got heartburn with your email address, let me know. (Specifically, if Jana would like "review" instead of "reviews" or if Scott and Marny would like their own addresses or a different username.) To start sending and receiving email from these accounts, you'll need to login, change your password, and either configure your webmail reader or configure your desktop POP3 client (Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, etc.). Right now, the password for all accounts is "manywaters" (get it?), all one word, no capitals. To login, go here: http://www.irreantum.org:2095 You must login to access this portion of the site. Please note that your login name is your FULL email address, including the "at" sign and the "irreantum.org" (this is different from many servers, and it took me a while to remember). Hence, if I wanted to get to the "fiction" account, I would login with username " fiction@irreantum.org " and password "manywaters". When you login, you'll see six links: three programs to check your mail online, a "change password" link, a "forwarding options" link and a "autoresponse options" link. First, change your password. Then, if you prefer to read your mail online, select one of the three viewers and configure your account. When I'm on the road and need to check my email, I use NeoMail, but I'm sure Horde and SquirrelMail work just as well. You'll need to enter your real name and any signatures you'd like to append, and then you're set to go. You can start sending and receiving email using your new account. You may want to bookmark the link above, as this will be the way to access your email online from now on. You will always need to use your full email address, along with whatever password you've selected. If you use a desktop email client that works with POP3 accounts (my server also allows IMAP, but I've been told it has more problems with this option, so I would stick to POP3 unless you really know what you're doing), here's the info you need when you set up a new account: Incoming mail server (POP3): mail.irreantum.org Outgoing mail server (SMTP): mail.irreantum.org User name: Again, use your full email address Password: whatever you have chosen to replace "manywaters" My server documentation notes: "Be sure to enable SMTP Authentication in your Email client or you may not be able to send outgoing mail. If your mail client has trouble using a @ sign in the login, you can use a +, :, or % sign instead." One note about server space: I know we get a lot of big attachments, but right now I've set the storage space to 10 megabytes for each account. If you find that isn't enough (and it very well may not be, especially for Chris), let me know and I'll bump it up. If you're checking your email online, what this means is that (ideally) you will save attachments to your hard drive and occassionally clean out old messages. If you're using a desktop email client, it means that (ideally) you will set your preferences to either delete messages older than __ days old or to remove messages from the server when you've moved them out of your inbox. If you have any questions about any of this, let me know and I'll be happy to troubleshoot. I hope this will help people. Again, if you don't want to use your address, you can simply login as described above and set your forwarding address to the address you'd like to use. That way, we won't have to list anyone's personal address on the irreantum.org website. I also plan to encode the email addresses whenever they appear on the site, which should eliminate most spam. If any of you start to have a problem with that, let me know -- there are server-side options to help combat the problem. OK, this has been too longwinded. Please let me know if you've tried this out and if it's working.

I also like to use music that complements the subject (instrumental, vocal, whatever) if it adds. You can listen at the link below to hear the current interview, and there is a link on the bottom right of that page to hear the previous interview which was a non-musical scholarly/scriptural topic. Glad to hear you're on it!
