Due to the personal obligations of Wild Violet editor Alyce Wilson, we’ve taken a couple weeks off from publishing. Get ready for a giant Valentine of an issue, as next week’s offerings will approach love from a variety of angles.

In addition, we’re doing something special for the first time. If you’d like to send a Valentine’s Day message to a friend, loved one, colleague, or literary idol, tweet @WildVioletMag with the hashtag #wvlove or e-mail wildvioletmagazine@yahoo.com, and we’ll share those messages on Valentine’s Day.

About

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.
