The Future of Full Stop
We’d like to begin by thanking everyone who has made the past 2 ½ weeks a success. None of us expected Full Stop to take off as quickly as it did, or to receive so much positive attention and kindness. Thank you.
We will post a few reviews over the next ten days but, for the most part, we’re winding down our “Year in Review” in order to begin looking forward. Here’s what you can expect come February 7th:
– New reviews, interviews, essays, and columns posted every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
– A blog updated daily with literary news, links, and musings
– Fiction Weekly, a column by Fiction Daily’s David Backer about the best fiction published online, which will appear every Friday
– A monthly Book Club in which Full Stop editors and special guests discuss a book in depth over the course of a week. The first Book Club will be our March discussion of The Late American Novel.
– A monthly “Lit Mag Taipei Deathmatch” in which Reviews Editor Max Rivlin-Nadler reviews fiction published in literary magazines.
– A wealth of new regular features, including installments about independent bookstores, young critics, and small presses.
– A monthly column from Nerve.com contributor Virginia Smith about self-help books written by celebrities.
– Theme days in which we devote a significant amount of attention to a genre (noir, sci-fi, fantasy) or to fiction related to a holiday (Father’s Day, Flag Day, 4/20). Similarly, we plan to devote one Wednesday a month to covering contemporary comics.
If there’s something you want to see on Full Stop, and it’s just not there, we’re open to suggestions.
