WELL READ Magazine

Welcome Readers and Writers of all genres!

The Latest Issue Is Here!

I’m very excited to share the submissions selected for this month’s WELL DONE! Prose and Poetry publications.  

Congratulations to Micah Ward, Larry F. Sommers, Ana Doina, Richard Stimac, DeLane Phillips, and Rita Welty Bourke for their outstanding work. I know you’re going to love these submissions as much as I do.

This month’s INSIDE VOICES from contributing writers, Robert Gwaltney and Jeffrey Dale Lofton, features Steven Rowley, author of The Celebrants, and Byron Lane, author of Big Gay Wedding. Annie McDonnell asks Jennifer Anne Gordon, author of Pretty/Ugly, some fun and interesting questions in ANNIE ASKS.

You’ll also find information on the upcoming Murder Creek Writing Retreat and another essay, by Holly Hart Shirley to introduce us to the history and characters behind The Holley House where the retreat will be held. This one is titled WORKAHOLICS.

As always there are some great books to add to your reading list, and Raymond L. Atkins joins us on the OFF THE PAGE column. 

Happy Reading!
