NMSU MFA Graduate's Literary Journal Celebrates First Print Issue



MFA Poetry '10 graduate Krystal Languell edits the journal Bone Bouquet, which is celebrating the release of its first print issue.  The NMSU English Dept helped fund the journal with a 2009-10 creative activities grant, and MFA student Elizabeth Brasher and fellow MFA Poetry '10 graduate Allison Layfield have also become involved with the journal. See below for information about the journal, and its inaugural launch reading in Brooklyn this month.
