regram from @eastendbookexchange who is carrying the latest issue of WEAVE! #pittsburgh #litmags
"Weave braids together writing and artwork that seems more necessary in a rapidly digitized world: the writing is fresh, inspired, and, perhaps best of all, makes this writer want to return to his writing desk to take up pen and pad and begin to scratch out word after word, hoping something as brilliant as the writing in Weave begins to take shape on the page."

We are pleased to announce that Weave Magazine's Managing Editor, Rachel Ann Brickner, and Fiction Editor, Sarah Shotland, will be at Barrelhouse's Conversations and Connections writing conference in Pittsburgh, PA on October 18, 2014. A little about the conference:
Conversations and Connections is a one-day writer's conference that brings together writers, editors, and publishers in a friendly, supportive environment. The conference is organized by Barrelhouse magazine, and has been held for the past 8 years in DC, and the past 2 in Philadelphia. All proceeds go to Barrelhouse and participating small presses and literary magazines.

Weave is enjoying the SF weather. T.S. Eliot was wrong - February is the cruelest month (at least in Pittsburgh)!
