Big News for Elegant Thorn Review

Matthew just posted the announcement over at The Woodshed, so I want to repost it here and at Elegant Thorn Review: ETR is joining POLYSEMY as a curated gallery. I will still be the editor/curator of ETR, only now it will be part of the POLYSEMY family of galleries that will be growing in the coming months.

It is my great pleasure to announce the addition of Bill Harryman to our staff. A long-time meister of the well-read blog, Integral Options Cafe, as well as other sites, Bill has also recently started the Elegant Thorn Review, an independent outlet for new poetry and photography.

We are very excited that Bill will continue curating the Elegant Thorn Review, soon to reside in its new location on the POLYSEMY Online website. This means that Elegant Thorn Review will change URL when we finish moving the existing site over to POLYSEMY, so stay tuned to The Woodshed for news about when it is online. It should be within a few weeks, so very soon.

Whereas The POLYSEMY Bookshelf is a curated gallery of recommended books for the working artist, Bill's Elegant Thorn Review will be the first such gallery at POLYSEMY that is dedicated to new and original work. As Curator he'll bring his unique and trained sensibility to bear on the works of poetry and photography that he showcases. Same goes for all Curators and their chosen themes.

Over the next several months, POLYSEMY Online will be unveiling more Curated Galleries of varied themes, to evoke timeless depth in novel ways. This journal is dedicated to supporting a community that not only discusses the seeds and juices of artistry, contemporary culture, classic works of the world canon, but importantly shares in the experience and discovery of new works.

This will be fun and inspiring, and we are thrilled that Bill will kick of the art galleries at POLYSEMY with his Elegant Thorn Review, as well as bring his perspective to POLYSEMY. Welcome, Bill!

Thanks, Matthew!

I look forward to this creative partnership. I feel that ETR will be able to grow and prosper much more as a part of the POLYSEMY family.
