Umbrella's Fall all-poetry edition is now online, featuring the special  
"work poem" section and a wonderful mix of voices familiar and new: 

The  editorial note contains an introduction to the work poems, another 
celebratory  "issue cento" and news about Best of the Net nominations. 

The winter  issue, online December 1, will mark Umbrella's first anniversary. 
 Poems on  general topics are welcome, and also poems for a planned special 
section on cold  poems, i.e. poems which makes use of winter ideas and/or 
wintery imagery. Snow,  sleet, ice, icicles, glaciers, Norway, whatever calls forth 
the inner and outer  experience of a winter state. For this and all Umbrella 
extras, poems that have  been published in books are welcome. If all goes 
well, more surprises will be in  store for the anniversary edition. 

We're reading for the prose section  as well. 

Bumbershoot, our zine for light verse and kiddie verse, lives  on but as an 
annual. The next planned issue of the 'shoot will be Summer 2008  and we will 
begin reading for it next  year.
