090312 + Winter issue is still not out — we are taking a page from Joaquin Phoenix and officially fucking around, not doing much in the way of our duties as a literary magazine. It's a bit shameful, but c'est la arte. We are waiting for the wind to pick up again. Or something like that. Apologies to contributors who are waiting for copies. You will get them, soon, hopefully, fingers crossed, God willing, if the stars align, so help us.
*cough*
Upcoming: Spring 09 and Summer 09 issues, due out respectively in May and July. (C&E is still struggling to go quarterly.) Mas informacion en un minuto, señors y señoritas.
In the meantime, read more, buy less, and so on, etc.

In the meantime, you can purchase back issues of C&E by going here . Purchase a couple and I'll throw in a back issue or two. Promise.
