How Did You Arrive At Your Current Position?
I founded 2River in 1996 as an online literary site.
What Is The Staff Structure At Your Magazine/press?
I'm the editor. I do it all myself.
Do You Have Any Cover Letter Advice?
No.
How Are Submissions Processed In Your Magazine/press?
Most submissions arrive via Submittable. I read them and give a thumbs up or thumbs down. By the end of any given reading period, I have about 20 submissions with a thumbs up. I then narrow that down to 10 writers, two poems each, for each issue.
