Hello Readers and Writers,
We received a large number of submissions of sample essays in our search for new columnists. Most of them were excellent and it was hard deciding whom to accept and whom not to. If you did not get selected, it does not at all mean that we didn’t like what you sent; we just have a limited number of slots and also sometimes we have too many people who want to write about the same subject (for example, a lot of philosophers applied this year). Today we welcome to 3QD the following persons, in alphabetical order by last name:
- Abigail Akavia
- Samia Altaf
- Pranab Bardhan
- Jeroen Bouterse
- Nickolas Calabrese
- Niall Chithelen
- Shawn Crawford
- Timothy Don
- Robert Fay
- Joan Harvey
- Mary Hrovat
- Lexi Lerner
- Bill Murray
- Thomas O’Dwyer
- Anitra Pavlico
- Ahmad Saidullah
- Andrea Scrima
- Joseph Shieber
- Tim Sommers
- Adele Stanislaus
- Joshua Wilbur
I will be in touch with all of you in the next days to schedule a start date. The “About Us” page will be updated with short bios and photographs of the new writers no later than the day they start.
Thanks to all of the people who sent samples of writing to us. It was a pleasure to read them all. Congratulations to the new columnists!
Best wishes,
Abbas
