Caliburnus Online

The dynamic, exceptionally gifted collective of students that I manage in the creative writing program I started building almost 20 years ago at Campbell Hall has lit out in another new direction. This time, we've taken Caliburnus , our longstanding arts journal, and started transforming it into a constantly evolving websomething that will publish new literature and art and audio work in a nonstop stream throughout the school year, culminating in the publication of a hardback book collecting it all next May.

Our first official published piece--a pretty dazzling piece of poetry and an accompanying painting--won't be up until next week. But the page is there, along with a video serving as our calling card/call for submissions/announcement of theme and backstory for this year's journal (click play to see the little film). It's kinda cute. The kids who created it are seriously talented. So I thought some of you--especially those of you who spent some part of your high school life dreaming Caliburnuses with me--might enjoy seeing it:
