Hello everybody!
If you’ve been wondering where we went, never fear: we’re still around, better than ever, and with a whole lot of good news.
Mosaic 55 has finally been printed! It’s in our hands and boy does it look beautiful. We’re in the process of sending those out to all our contributors, so if you had a piece published in that issue, don’t worry: it’ll be there soon.
We also have a few exciting events coming up! Starting in March, we have two back-to-back Open Mic events: First, on March 3rd at 6:00pm, we’ll be hosting an Open Mic at Back to the Grind in downtown Riverside in coordination with Audeamus, the UCR Honors Journal. Second, on March 10th at 6:00pm, we’ll be at Jafang Pizza. Both of these events are sure to be awesome, and remember, they’re both great places to eat, so make sure you support them by purchasing their delicious food and beverages!
Most importantly, submissions for Mosaic 56 are closing in one week, on February 28th. There’s still time to send in your poetry, prose, or artwork, so please do, because we would be absolutely ecstatic to read it!
That’s all for now, but look forward to more updates. We hope to see you at our events, and we hope to see your writing gracing the pages of our journal.
Hello all!
Our first Open Mic Night of the year is coming up! For this event, we’ll be partnering with the UCR Honors Journal, Audeamus.
It’s at Back to the Grind, which is a wonderful coffee shop in downtown Riverside. They are a cash only venue, so bring some dollars and support the establishment!
You can perform whatever you’d like, whether it’s poetry, prose, music, comedy, or anything in between. We’re excited to hear all of it!
Remember: October 7th, at 6:00pm. Don’t forget!
Now, in addition to this, Mosaic is going to be doing things a little differently this year. We’re a student org, so we’re going to be having general meetings!
If you attended any of our Writing Salons last year, we’ll be doing similar stuff: talking about writing, how to read like writers, that sort of thing. We’ll also be talking about Mosaic events, and industry-related things like publishing and writing programs. Basically, it’s a way for creative writers who are not currently Mosaic Editors to be involved in the process.
These meetings will be held Mondays at 6:00pm in INTS 2138, and will be starting this upcoming Monday, October 10th. We hope to see all of you there!
Also, just a reminder, we are currently open for submissions, so check out our Submission Guidelines and send your wonderful work our way! We can’t wait to read it!
And don’t worry, we haven’t forgotten about Mosaic 55! So if you had work accepted last year, or if you’re just really excited about Mosaic in general, don’t worry–it’s still on it’s way. Mosaic 55 is slated for a winter release at this point, so check back for an official release date once we get closer.
Happy living!
Love,
Ben (and the radical Mosaic staff)
