From the Editor: Welcome to Spice of Life (July/August 2008)
It was poet William Cowper who said “Variety is the very spice of life, that gives it all its flavor.” We here at All Things Girl are strong believers in that whole train of thought and are pleased to bring to you the fourth issue of 2008: Spice of Life.
As you scroll through the virtual pages of All Things Girl and our July/August issue, I hope you are able to appreciate the glimpses into the lives of others. Each month, we grow to be more amazing than the month before. First, our classics and representative of our theme: Writings & Arts. In Writings…. you will find short stories that make you smile and poems that make you feel whimsical. I know you’ll recognize some names here in Writings….and will be thrilled at the discovery of some new talent as well. And what can I say about Arts? Art is downright fun this issue as we get a glimpse into the spice of life. Everything Girl is, as always, wonderful. You will find an interview with our lovely cover girl, Francia Raisia as well as our Man of the Moment, Crosby Loggins. In addition to wise words and thought-provoking ideas from our regular columsinsts, there is also an inspiring interview with author Breena Clarke. Be sure an grab a glass of ice tea or lemonade when you sit down to read Everything Girl! And let’s not forget Reviews. You’ll find music reviews and book reviews.
As always, keep an eye on The Blog. You never know what you might find as the editors and columnists share what’s on their minds…..as well as a chance to win several books.
We’re still taking submissions for “Spice of Life” by the way, but you need to be quick. We’ll have a mid-issue update August 1st and will be adding a few items here and there… If you are inspired to share your talents, submissions are open for future editions of All Things Girl – and we can’t wait to see what you’ve got!
Believing in the concept of the Spice of Life is a wonderful thing. What I hope for you is that not only do you embrace the concept, but you are also out there living it. Much love to everyone.
