Study Shows E-books the Greener Choice
by Adrian Versteegh
Given that paper accounts for a quarter of all landfill volume, it should probably come as no surprise that a recent study touted e-books as more environmentally friendly than traditional publishing. A report released this month by the San Francisco-based Cleantech Group found that Amazon’s Kindle device could generate a net savings in carbon emissions—a savings that increases as print consumption is displaced.

Atwood Embarks on Eco-Friendly Book Tour
by Adrian Versteegh
Margaret Atwood plans to keep it green as she tours in support of her latest novel, an environmental calamity tale titled The Year of the Flood, forthcoming from Nan A. Talese next month. The Booker Prize-winning author will travel by train where possible, carry minimal luggage, eschew bottled water, and require that venues serve only fair trade, bird-friendly coffee.

The pieces that give us chills, the pieces that make us step back and
think about our surroundings, those are the ones we are looking for.
Make us laugh, make us cry, make us fear death. Hell, make us want to
die. Love, hate, hope, irony, depression—life has many feelings and
emotions. What makes you feel these things? We want to read something
that proves to us that the human brain is still worth something. Or
maybe it is worth nothing.
Women in REDzine
We look for writing that is surprisingly exceptional, not necessarily the in your face brilliance, but the kind of writing that surprises you with story and a clear focus and voice. We love new writers, adore established writers, and embrace the I've-Never-Done-This-Before writers. If you have a story, a poem, an essay, or something that you haven't quite classified yet, but you think it could stand up to being read, then please submit it. Our staff loves to read!
