Loads of Blog Love

9/4/2013

Activity on the Blogosphere

Dear fledglings (new & old),

Thank you for being such delightful ducklings and liking, sharing, pinning, and tweeting our posts. Without your enthusiasm, we wouldn't be where we are today. We're especially grateful to all the folks who've recently mentioned us on their blogs. We always appreciate mainstream media shout-outs—like our upcoming feature in The Richmond Times-Dispatch—but there's something special about securing validation from the little guys. That sort of love is unconditional.

While we won't link to all of the blogs that have flattered us over the past week, we do encourage you to check out one blog in particular. It's that of writer/poet and M.F.A. candidate, Jessica Reidy. Today she posted about our regular Photo Tale feature, which has been a part of Quail Bell Magazine from the very start. Due to their popularity, Photo Tales will be the focus of our new print publication, Quail Bell Look Book. Check out "Free Spirits," which showcases Ms. Reidy's poetic talent and natural beauty, on The Unreal.

That's all for now, but you'll be hearing about our poetry/photography collection, The Children of Jackson Ward, soon.

Feathery hugs,
The Quail Bell Crew

About Us

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. More of her work can be found at writinggales.wordpress.com.
