IN PREVIOUS ISSUESBlackbird publishes new issues twice a year. The notion of “issue” is both a nod to the print journal and a way for us to call attention to the new work of a limited number of writers. However, publishing online allows us keep all issues available for reading, listening, and viewing. On this page, we wish to point you toward some of the content you may have missed but which still lives in our Archives.

In
our second issue, November 2002, we published Susan Settlemyre Williams’s
review of Pinion, the second collection by poet Claudia Emerson,
along with an audio interview of Emerson. In May 2003, we published four
poems that were later included in Emerson’s Pulitzer Prize-winning
collection, Late Wife.
In
our premiere issue, April, 2002, we published “Clockwork Prayer:
A Sixteenth-Century Mechanical Monk,” by sculptor Elizabeth King.
The essay included 23 illustrations, a video of the mechanical monk in
motion, and, added later as a feature, “What Happened,” a
stop-action animation video of King’s sculpture “Pupil” by
King and Richard Kizu-Blair.
In
November of 2005, writers
and long-time friends Elizabeth McCracken and Ann Patchett interviewed
each other for Blackbird during a visit to Virginia Commonwealth
University. They also took questions from students of VCU’s MFA Program
in Creative
Writing. The audio interview was featured in our previous issue, November
2005.
