Digital Doodad
The QB Crew is movin' on up. Don't you want to be able to say you contributed to that movement? With plans in the works for a re-vamped website, additional daily content, a brick-and-mortar studio open to the public, a print anthology, and a fashion show as a high-profile historic location, The QB Crew has a lot to do. Part of that to-do list includes fundraising.
Do you want a bigger, better, and badder Quail Bell? Please support The QB Crew by purchasing a digital download of Quail Bell Express: Issue One (Josephine Stone Edition). You won't regret it, fledglings!
A box full of ponies!
On February 17th, we announced our first community sculpture project, Project Pony. Since we last updated you on March 8th, we haven't acquired many maned friends since then. Could you please help us make our vision of an awesome sculpture of ponydom a reality? What you see pictured above is all we have. Mail us your pony, horse, unicorn, and pegasus toys, and we'll love you forever! Here's our address: Quail Bell Magazine

Thank you so much for your interest and help thus far. And, remember, just because you don't have some plastic ponies lying around your house doesn't mean you can't contribute to the effort:
Again, thank you for believing in community art and, above all, pony power!
Our FB Presence
Facebook, like Quail Bell, is an online community. The primary difference between FB & QB is that there's nothing esoteric about FB. It's totally mainstream. Everybody uses Facebook. Even rebels use Facebook. The QB Crew bets that if medieval princesses had had Facebook, they would've used it, too. But since medieval princesses aren't around, The QB Crew uses FB for them.
Here's where you can find us on the world's most popular social media website:
Now that you know where to go, you have no excuse not to 'like' us. So get clicking, fledglings! Who knows? You might even win a prize or two.
A poignant birthday
Dear Josie,
Happy birthday! You would've been 24 years old today, had you not tragically died 6 months ago. Talented, spirited, and quirky, you embodied the true Quail Bell(e) philosophy of being. We miss you as our Managing Editor, contributing writer, and--above all--friend.
Quem di diligunt, adolescens moritur.
Feathery hugs forever,
The QB Crew
Hey, what's that little button?
You may have started seeing this button more and more often on QB:
Well, you know why it's there: QB's asking for donations (please, please, please). But why do we need your help?QB is run entirely by college students and recent grads--poor young people with big dreams. It costs money to run a website. Not only do we have to pay for our domain name, we also pay for an account with the website we use to edit our website. That's not to mention the money we pay for other online tools or even the various equipment we use to produce QB content, from digital cameras to scanners.Then there's also the print work we do, and print work is expensive. Each copy of Quail Bell Express costs nearly $3 to print. We also print flyers for our events (like Imagimania!) and just general promotional materials, too.As for our Photo Tales and videos? Those involve doing hair, make-up, getting costumes (which we can't always borrow from stores), and feeding our crew.These are just a few of the many costs associated with running QB. Please consider that as you visit our website and think about how you can help. We appreciate donations of all sizes. If you have other ideas for how to help us, please contact us.Thank you so much for your time and extra thanks if you decide to donate.

We hope you find all your eggs today--especially the golden one. And while you're at it, find the goose who laid it!
Feathery hugs,
The QB Crew
