Summer edition of Fine Lines is out
The summer edition of Fine Lines is ready for you. The cover looks like this —
The first essay of the issue is a good one for every writer to read. It’s title says it all.
Apologies . . . the end of a school year is busy
My name is Tim Kaldahl, and I help out with Fine Lines. I’m also a high school teacher and the end of the academic year was a busy time. My hope is to more frequently provide updates, samples from the journal, and other lit. stuff. With that in mind:
- Camp is coming up in June! The details are at this link– Summer Camp 2017
- The Spring issue is out — current Fine Lines
- And, of course, there is good stuff in that issue. Check out this artistic sample below.
Fine Lines listed in summer camp issue of Omaha Family!
Here’s a nice mention of the upcoming Fine Lines Summer Camp from Omaha Family.
The issue on 2017 Summer camps is out in print and is available at this link — Omaha Family’s Annual Summer Camp Guide 2017.
A short essay on higher education
We run a lot of poetry in this space because of, well, space. Here’s something a little different from the latest issue of Fine Lines. It’s a short essay on higher education. It’s written by Rachel Brannen, who is currently majoring in Chemical Dependency Counseling at Metropolitan Community College. She is a young mother of three, and she supports her family by waiting tables and rehabbing furniture for profit. She also has a passion for writing.
It’s blustery outside, so read a poem
It should be nicer at the end of April. If you’re inside today, try reading a poem. This one is from the latest edition of Fine Lines.
