loungeteer Newsletter - Feb 2009
the magazine for (& by) homeschoolers


Greetings newsletter subscribers!

I have both good and bad news. Firstly, I haven't received hardly as many submissions as I'd hoped, and because of some unforeseen circumstances I was unable to put the first issue together yet. So our first issue is going to be released later than planned. (Probably early next month.)

However, I will be accepting last-minute submissions from those who didn't have a chance to submit for this issue. (Ideas are at the end of this email.) Deadline is February 27.

I'm also pleased to announce that Loungeteer is expanding its demographic, and will be including younger homeschoolers too. So, little kids who would love to see their artwork, poetry, etc. in a magazine will have the chance.

Also, please participate in our poll! It should only take a second to complete: Do you like being homeschooled?

  1. Find something you made
    It can be anything; it doesn't have to be your best or made
