Great idea, Ben, to include a diversity of lit journals & their editors. The 1-2%ers already receive a lot of bandwidth. Sure, they have one valid perspective on what makes great reading or writing, but there are others just as valid. Some of my fave reading is in those smaller, quirkier journals - or not even quirky - but those with a very clear aesthetic like Corvid Queen or Crow & Cross Keys or Milk Candy Review.
Yeah I am thinking of doing a series in The Sub Club Newsletter with editors sharing this from a whole variety of journals.
