RED BEAN PRESS

a writeblr-first literary magazine showcasing the many voices and talents within the writeblr community

announcement

hello everyone! as you have probably noticed, we did not announce a theme for an issue this month. with the departure of our layout editor, the red bean press will be taking a hiatus and implementing some "infrastructure" changes. additionally, since the majority of the editorial board are students, we are burnt out and overwhelmed with school at the moment.

hopefully, this will give us time to make major improvements to the red bean press, as we are considering serialization and staff writers, among other ideas. we will also be opening up applications for our editorial board in the future.

the red bean press will return in may with more news!

helloooo!!! im bad at making sideblogs and tracking sideblogs so i generally use my main blog (this) as everything - also my writeblr. im not active at posting WIPs or stuff, though i do occasionally put something in my trusty #writing tag! my question is: would i be qualified as a writeblr (i know we can submit without having one but i hope you can follow my question) or would my blog not be counted as one? thanks in advance! 💖

you’ll count as one! being a writeblr doesn’t mean that you only post writing related things :)
