Fall 2007

All submissions after December 1, 2007 will be considered for the Spring 2008 issue.  Due to elements beyond our control, the Winter 2008 issue will be delayed a bit. How long? Hopefully, just a few days. If you'd like to be put on our email list, send us a message at editors@shakinglikeamountian.com, and we'll notify you when the new issue is live.  .

Bye, Bye Bunny

sun studios, shaking mashupSo your trusty editors have done it again. I know, I know, many thought shaking like a mountain was going to be one of those really great one-hit-wonders. You know, like A-ha, Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark or Timbuk 3. Ha! It seems your editors are not so easily, uh, shaken.

While this issue offers another serving of literary joy and happiness for you, our readers, it comes with a note of sadness as well. Our friendly little antlered friend, who was, until recently, holding down the archives page, is no more. Poof! Off to join other pookahs and sprightly characters in the folds of someone else’s imagination. For It seems we have the start of a real archive there now. So, if you missed any of the wonder-stuff we featured in Summer 2007, seek the shook page.

Now for the really good news __ Fall 2007. We’ve got a take on the Irish “poonk” rock scene in Brendan Harding’s “Browny Goldin,” and several other fabulous flights of fancy.

In the poetry section you’ll discover “13 Ways of Looking at Cher,” and the answer to the question of where aging deejays go in Fred Shaw’s “Turntable Generation.”

For those of you looking for a bit of truth, some essay or screed about what’s happening in the here and now, you’ll have to wait until January. A challenge to you, fair readers and writers, if you have been affected by music in a truly personal way, one which might prompt a bit of autobiography, personal memoir, life writing, please don’t be shy. We’re reading for the Winter issue now.

Your editors,

Chad and Jeremy
