Second Tier Editorial Review


The Becoming anthology second-tier editorial review has taken place, and we are in the process of notifying submitters. We will then determine the order of the manuscript, and after the start of the year draft our book proposal. If the publisher we have in mind accepts the book, it will see print in another 1-1/2 to 2 years. If they decline on the book, the University of Nebraska Gender Programs has committed to publishing, so either way, we have a publisher.

The essays and poems we received share stunning, moving stories. One of the most difficult things I've ever done has been to pass on publishing all of the great writing that came our way. What a smart bunch of talented writers who submitted to the anthology! I'm eager to share their writing with you when the anthology is finally in book form.

Thank you to everyone who sent us your work!
