How can you participate?
RFD relies on it's readers to stimulate ideas and themes for future issues of the magazine as well as responding to our call for articles and artwork for each issue. Each issue of RFD comes out of community input for a theme. And our readers thankfully respond with wonderful poems, stories as well as photographs and artwork.RFD operates as a collective - that collective is currently located in New England and produces each issue with the assistance of guest editors and teams of volunteers who may help put together an issue. If you are in the Northeast and have an interest in joining the collective or if you are from farther afield and wish to help on producing an issue of RFD, please be in touch.
RFD also has a small Board of Directors who help guide the collective and promote RFD's mission to the wider community. If you have an interest in joining our Board, please send us a note.
