Companion Anthology Proofs

A Halloween Gift

Dear fledglings,

It should probably go without saying that Halloween is my favorite holiday. After all, I'm the girl who's co-directed a documentary on Edgar Allan Poe, am co-writing a book on cemeteries, and am also directing a documentary on cemeteries. Oh, yeah, plus I founded Quail Bell Magazine, which is like Halloween incarnate. Think I like weird, dead stuff? You bet your britches. I am elated that October 31st has arrived and know I'll only get happier as nightfall approaches. I could kiss a werewolf!

Halloween gushing aside, I have another reason to be thrilled today. Art director extraordinaire, Kristen Rebelo, and I checked out the proofs of Quail Bell's companion anthologies --Airborne and The Nest (Belle Isle Books, an imprint of Brandylane Publishers)—and our jaws practically hit the Edwardian-era floorboards. They look beautiful and they are a beautiful read. What a gift! Pre-order your copies today. You'll be seeing them in Barnes & Noble and on Amazon.com not too long from now, too.

Happy Halloween!

Feathery hugs,
Christine Stoddard/ “Luna Lark”

Welcome to our staff blog, where you can learn more about The Quail Bell Crew.

History

Christine Stoddard conceived the idea for Quail Bell in late 2009 after writing a children's story by the same name, and launched the website as a college blog in 2010. In June 2013, Christine and former art director Kristen Rebelo officially launched Quail Bell Magazine as a global web magazine. Read our editorial mission statement to learn more.

The QB Crew

Christine Stoddard, Founding Editor

Art, media, and language have enchanted Christine Stoddard since the days of her early upbringing in Arlington, VA. While still a mere fairy flutter from D.C., Christine dove into creative activities, hoping that her artistic talents would distract her teachers from learning of her mathematical inability. Luckily, her plan worked. Her non-math skills have been recognized by regional and national organizations. In October 2011, Style Weekly Magazine named her one of the "Top 40 Under 40" in Richmond, VA, while she was still a VCUarts student. Christine currently lives and works in her native Virginia. Email her at: [email protected].

Gretchen Gales,

Executive Editor
Though Gretchen first dedicated her life to being a veterinarian and a best-selling writer on the side, her lack of technical abilities helped guide her towards a literary and art career. Gretchen has published work in Ms., Bustle, The Establishment, and over 30 other publications. She also has been interviewed in Dear English Major and Her Campus.
