To My Lovely Partners in Crime

Dear fledglings,

There definitely comes a point when too much gushing becomes, well, too much gushing, but all this mission trip grooviness has left me feeling oh-so-grateful for everything. With that being said, I want to give a shout-out to QB art director Kristen Rebelo, QB managing editor Misty Thomas, QB fashion intern Sidney Shuman, and QB illustrator Laura Bramble. They did one heck of a job (wo)manning the fort while I was off in Peru. Not only did the maintain the website, but they:

• finalized our latest print 'zine
• released a special print project (you'll have to see it at the Richmond 'Zine Fest this Saturday)
• organized our forthcoming Richmond fashion show, "Timeless Zeitgeist"
• finished booking our reading at Molasses Books in Brooklyn
• wrapped up the color illustrations for Bus 900
• designed promotional materials for The Children of Jackson Ward
• worked on our documentary film, Richmond's Dead and Buried, and companion book, Images of America: Richmond's Cemeteries

And more that I have to stay hush-hush about for the time being. Thank you, thank you, thank you, ladies. Your creativity and work ethic are largely why I'm proud to be a part of The Quail Bell Crew.

Feathery hugs,
Christine Stoddard/ “Luna Lark”

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.
