'Welcome to Meniscus volume 11, issue 2. We weren’t sure, eleven years ago, if we’d be able to get a new literary journal up and running, but thanks to our contributors and readers, it has after all happened. Thank you for making our work (a) possible and (b) so rewarding.
'For this issue, there was a very large submissions pile, both poetry and prose. This means that far too much quality work was, necessarily, rejected. The principles for selecting about 60 poems and 18 prose works out of over 1,000 submissions required us to make very difficult decisions. The aim was to produce an issue with a balance of style, voice, and content, and ensuring we include some new writers alongside well-established voices.' (Jen Webb and Ginna Brock: Editorial introduction)
