Hello Reader,
Not all the tulips have come up this year, so the spring display at UPPERCASE HQ is a bit sparseβat least compared to the swaths of colour I had envisioned when I planted dozens of bulbs.
I could be disappointed, thinking about the no-show blooms and lamenting the bare spots.
But when I shift my perspective...
Lovely! These tulips understood the assignment.
What a glorious display!

Thank you to everyone who submitted to the Jot book auditions. There are a couple of hundred submissions that I will be reviewing over the weeks ahead. I will share more submission opportunities soon.

Since my last message, I've doubled the number of finished pages for UPPERCASE magazine issue #70.
I could compare the editorial process of UPPERCASE magazine to those tulips... ideas planted here and there months ago, slowly growing beneath the surface. Then, with some editorial nurturing, attentive graphic design, some hard work and patience.... suddenly, the magazine is in bloom!
