Wild Violet editor Alyce Wilson is recovering from a week-long vacation with her family — including her siblings and their children — as well as a big party to celebrate her parents’ 70th birthday. As you might imagine, staying in a cabin in Central Pennsylvania with no Internet access made it next to impossible to put together this week’s issue. So kick back, relax, swim in a pool if you like, and take the time to put together your submission!
Look for our return next week, with part one of a two-part look at Religion.
About Alyce Wilson
Alyce Wilson is the editor of Wild Violet and in her copious spare time writes humor, non-fiction, fiction and poetry and infrequently keeps an online journal. Her first chapbook, Picturebook of the Martyrs; her e-book/pamphlet, Stay Out of the Bin! An Editor's Tips on Getting Published in Lit Mags ; her book of essays and columns, The Art of Life; her humorous nonfiction ebook, Dedicated Idiocy: How Monty Python Fandom Changed My Life, and her newest poetry collection, Owning the Ghosts, can all be ordered from her Web site, AlyceWilson.com. In late 2019, she published a volume of poetry by her third great-grandfather, Reading's Physician Poet: Poems by Dr. James Meredith Mathews, which also contains genealogical information about the Mathews family. She lives with her husband and son in the Philadelphia area and takes far too many photos of her handsome, creative son, nicknamed Kung Fu Panda.
