Dear Friend,
It's almost embarrassing. People say to us, “Gee, you guys have been around a long time, like 25 years, huh?’
Well, actually it's 45 years. Dick and Bob have been around since the beginning. Mark joined us in 1980. Donna, 30 years after becoming a contributor, became an editor in 2004 and Marie, our Official Kid, came along in 2001.
Of course, there's an important person missing from this list: You. Without the extraordinary support we've received from our wonderful friends, Hanging Loose would just be a memory, like most of the other presses that started in 1966. Instead, we are working on the 100th issue of the magazine, due next April. That means we've presented nearly 10,000 pages of writing and art! And the books keep coming - nearly 200 titles to date. The new list has work by Charles North, Zack Linmark, Rosalind Brackenberry, Steve Schrader, Anna Maria Shua, Joel Lewis, and a novella by Tankred Dorst, translated by Anne Posten, the first winner of the new Loose Translations award we are co-sponsoring with Queens College.
Your donations make all the difference. Please stay with us. We pledge to use your money very carefully. Almost every dollar we receive goes right back into production and marketing. And, we might add, we never ask our writers for a nickel.
Thanks to our friends at the Council of Literary Magazines and Presses, all contributions are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. Just make out your check to CLMP and note on the memo line that the funds are for Hanging Loose. Then mail to HL at 231 Wyckoff Street, Brooklyn, NY 11217.
We deeply appreciate your time, your interest, and your support.
All best,
P.S. We’ve got a gift for you, too. Please see the enclosed sheet (download below).
The Editors: Robert Hershon, Dick Lourie, Mark Pawlak, Ron Schreiber (1934-2004) Associate Editors: Donna Brook, Marie Carter
