SPOKE(a)N(e) Issue #11: November 2009

Greetings all. Hope you're staying warm. Our eleventh issue is ready for reading, and here's what you can expect:

-Profile: cartoonist Michael McMullen
-Profile: Broken Mic Poetry
-Art in Progress/Photo Spread: welder Robert Sevilla Naudon
-November First Friday coverage by Tyson Habein

READ it all here!

No Compulsive Chronicles column from Sara this month, as she is currently participating in both National Novel Writing Month (which you can read about in the October issue) and Pajiba's Cannonball Read. Her review of Devil in the Details by Jennifer Traig was just featured on their site.

All of her reviews (and supplementary material to past columns) can be seen on Glorified Love Letters.

And if you're still itching for something to read, go read her call to productivity over on the RiVerSpeAK blog. RiVerSpeAK was featured in SPOKE(a)N(e)'s September Issue.


December will be the magazine's off month. But we'll still have a few things up on the blog throughout the month. Stay tuned!

Greetings all, here we are again presenting the latest in and around Spokane. September's issue is almost all about one-night-only events and the sense of community surrounding them.

Check it all out here

--Photographer Shane Savage and writer Laureen Savage cover the recent Finding Fiction gig over at Art, Music & More.

--Tyson Habein captures the sights from both the Main Street Fair and that evening's Sustainable Uprising.

--Sara Habein takes a quick look at the new creative collective, RiVerSpeAK, founded by Brooke Matson.

--Tyson also covers this month's First Friday Art Walk, with looks at the Saranac Gallery, the Community Building, Sante, Brickwall Gallery, Avenue West, Studio Capelli, and Empyrean.

--And in Compulsive Chronicles, drifting away from group efforts, Sara ruminates on the perils and triumphs of solo albums. "For every John, Paul and George, there’s a Ringo..."

We do hope you enjoy. And if you haven't yet, please take our reader survey.

It's only 15 questions. Really, it will only take you a couple of minutes. What do you like? What do you dislike? What do you wish we'd cover? This is all to make it a more enjoyable reading experience for YOU.

We know you're out there, readers, and we're assuming you have opinions. Let us know.

Hola and hello, Spokane. It is indeed that time again...

Read Issue #7 here!

What will you find this month?
