We received a submission from a talented blind artist a few days ago, and that inspired me to give BLJ an audio version. A discussion with Dr Fong has led to a quick decision to call for Audio Recordings of Issue 1's works. And I think it's a meaningful act because people with different needs could then enjoy the verses and stories more fully.
See the new ad posted in the Submission Page, with the same yelling boy, which has announced our new direction. Note the deadline for Audio submission (1 April 2015). I hope this brings even more colours to the publication. Pete Happy to inform you that BLJ has just been listed on NewPages Young Authors Guide. The guide provides a good list of publishers accepting works from young writers and/or for young readers. BLJ is a good fit. http://www.newpages.com/writers-resources/young-authors-guide   While I'm trying my best to widen the readership of the first issue of BLJ, our issue 2's call for submission ad has been posted at NewPages. I hope to see more great pieces coming in and that Issue 2 will be even a more fantastic collection than the first.
Approaching the end of the Chinese New Year holiday over here. Will meet my students again soon enough and I'll promote the journal in my professional context. Hope the boys (my school is a boys' school!) will love this magazine! Pete Glad to have established a facebook page for our magazine! Check this out!
