we are also delighted to infuse each edition with interviews & reviews of innovative works in all of the above genres. and then some.
our editorial and design collectives operating behind the curtains (& not so behind the curtains) are primarily artists, literary or otherwise, with involvement in the local calgarian & canadian arts scene. or they're just incredibly nice. literary events are organized by us, for you, to promote talent currently or formerly operating in calgary.
everyone, every single one of us, working in editing, distribution, marketing, event planning, & all administrative tasks from picking up mail to maintaining the subscription database are entirely: a) hip like you wouldn't believe & b) volunteers

THE NEW CHIEF TONGUE is a rough cut innovative poetry magazine published 1-3 times a year by Laurel Reed Books. The adventure of the tongue is that it celebrates poetry of all kinds. From lyric to sound to concrete to visual to haiku and on. The editors of TNCT believe very strongly in the poetics of inclusion, that genre is a door, a window, not a wall.
Bywords publishes on a monthly basis poems on the web, a Calendar of Literary Events, and the Bywords Quarterly Journal. Its aims are to publish emerging and established poets who reside, study or work in Ottawa. Bywords will reflect Ottawa's rich multicultural diversity.
Bywords was founded in the Fall of 1990 by a group of editors, staff, students, and alumni of the University of Ottawa. The group was brought together by Heather Ferguson of Agawa Press, Seymour Mayne of the Department of English, and Gwen Guth, a doctoral graduate in the Department.
The bywords.ca team is a dedicated group of motivated volunteers who would like to make Bywords a strong literary force in Ottawa. Our goal is to turn bywords.ca into the focal point for Ottawa poetry, literary information, and events.
