Newest Issue Debuts at Comfest

Central Ohio Writing, the premiere literary journal of Central Ohio, unveils its Spring/Summer 2002 issue at Comfest. June 28, 29, and 30 at an as yet undetermined location within Goodale Park--half the fun of your trip to see us will be trying to find Central Ohio Writing in the orgy of booths, bands, and community festivities--avid readers can pick-up our new issue, catch up on our premeire issue, and chat with the editors.

Current subscribers will be able to pick-up their issue at Comfest, if their enthusiasm makes it difficult for them to wait for our anticipated Tuesday ship-date of the subscribers copies (literally the journal just arrives).

For those unable to join us at Comfest, you can still subscribe on line here (link), or by the second week in July our new issue should be available at the Wexner Center Bookshop, An Open Book in the Short North, and Newsworthy in Grandview (map).

Our first issue is still available for purchase as well.

Writing and Art in Columbus

At 7 pm Thursday July 18th at the Columbus Museum of Art, writers and readers will gather to celebrate the release of the newest issue of Central Ohio Writing.

Our contributors Kathy Fagan, Richard Unger, Marilyn Brownstein, and Jerry Roscoe will share selection of their published works or their works in progress. The free reading coincides with the Columbus Museum of Art free admission Thursdays.

So come early and enjoy the art, then settle back and soak in the literature.
