Who are the different people involved in making the Jimson Weed? What are their positions?
Currently, in addition to the five faculty advisors, we have a student managing editor, assistant managing editor, art and graphics editor, and a number of student staff editors, all of whom work with the selection and production process.
What type of stories does the Jimson Weed accept?
All types of stories—as well as poems and non-fiction works—may be considered, as long as they are within the journal’s length restriction.
How is the cover photo picked?
Cover art is selected from among art and photography submissions by the managing editor, after consulting the staff editors and faculty advisors, if need be.
