NewPages Review of Issue of CQ 61:1

Aww shucks. You shouldn’t have.

The fine people over at NewPages have us blushing with Sarah Gorman’s glowing review of CQ 61:1.

We’re down to about 6 copies of this issue left in the office, but as Gorman reminds us: “Chapel Hill scholars are indeed fortunate that, as the back cover states, the publication is ‘Free to UNC Students.’” So, Tar Heels, take a gander here: https://cqarchives.web.unc.edu/

Submit It Slant in 2012

In 2011, The Carolina Quarterly partnered with Tell It Slant to offer streamlined online submissions. Thanks in part to the help of Tell It Slant, our response times have been cut in half, and our lost/missing submissions dropped from 30% (which was inexcusable) to 0%, according to Duotrope.com.

In 2012, we’d like to thank all of our submitters who use Tell It Slant, and encourage those who don’t to give it a try. Each month in 2012, we will select one person who submitted via Tell It Slant during that month to receive a FREE one-year subscription to The Carolina Quarterly.

Happy New Year – may it be full of good reading, productive writing, and successful submitting!

‘Tis the Season

It hasn’t yet snowed in North Carolina and the holiday season is shaping up to be a rather green affair. So we here at CQ are going above and beyond to spread some holiday cheer.

If you subscribe to The Carolina Quarterly via Tell it Slant between now and January 1st, we’ll throw in a FREE 1-year gift subscription for a friend or family member. Put that under your tree and read it.

November Tagline Contest Winner

Thanks to everyone who entered our November Tagline Contest.

We had a number of wonderful submissions, which caused some consternation among the selection committee. After much debate, however, we finally reached a consensus.

Dyson Shultz’s “Quizzical Syzygy Since 1948″ will appear as the tagline for CQ issue 61.3, due out in late December 2011. As a prize, Dyson will receive a one-year subscription to the journal.

This contest was such a success, that we’ve decided to run it again in the future. Visit the CQ website in February 2012 to give it another shot.
