This space is a public venue for the Cascadia Editors (Judith, Lucia, and me, Matt) to write about the craft of editing and our literary ideas and experiences. It gives writers, editors, and publishers a chance to meet us as writers and thinkers, and perhaps learn from our own musings on the literary arts. We imagine it as a book-lined café with a great newspaper and periodical section. Here writers and editors can drop in and learn about what books about editing and writing we believe are important, what novels sit on our nightstands, and what literary events we attend. We may also discuss other editors, publishers, and printers we associate with, and whatever editing, teaching, and publishing victories we have along the way.

And with that little introduction out of the way, grab yourself a cup of coffee and let’s get started.
