My college, Metro State, puts together a quarterly literary magazine, Haute Dish. Recently I was asked to serve as an editor for new submissions but I haven't heard anything about when this responsibility will kick in.
In the meantime, the deadline for submission is tomorrow so I just now sent along some of my work: three photos from my season of experimentation with the Holga, and a short story, But That's Another Story. The story was catalyzed by my pet peeve with that same expression--people (ab)use it to make their lives sound more interesting than they are--and I ran with the idea of someone forcing someone else to tell them exactly what this "other story" is, taking it to outrageous lengths. Actually, I'm hoping to extend it into a chapbook, especially since the story itself has been positively received by my friends and classmates.
I had a brief concern with multiple submissions, but in reality I'm not exactly showering the world of publications with my stories so I think it's okay if I send this one along to my college's literary magazine. I think I'm not shooting myself in the foot with this move.
