Some journals are great about putting writers work in-progress pronto via Submittable! We’re talking about Compose composejournal.com !

One thing that’s difficult to gauge about an online journal is how much material there is. You can’t pick it up and get a sense of its size by hefting it around a bit. Let me assure you that the Fall 2014 issue of Compose Journal is BIG.

Continuing to connect with other writers online. Just followed @ComposeJournal. You should check it out.

Spending a sunny afternoon on my deck browsing essays in the inaugural issue of @ComposeJournal. Impressive!

The inaugural issue of @ComposeJournal is beautiful, inside & out. Strong writing & a gorgeous site design.

I’m so impressed by the levels of professionalism & dedication . . . @ComposeJournal.

[W]ho is this stunning Rebecca Hazelton—Master of Images? […] Last stanza of first poem has me ruined as a writer. […] Her command of language and the images she creates are breathtaking.

Have you read the first issue of @ComposeJournal yet? Get on it!

@ComposeJournal‘s one of my faves. Well worth a follow if you like #flashfiction &#poetry!

One thing I like about the name Compose is that it says that good writing doesn’t just happen – it’s crafted, it’s allowed to ripen, it requires work and dedication and skill, all of which can be learned but takes commitment.
