The SLM Blog was conceived of as a unmoderated forum in which readers and writers of SLM (or anyone else) might post or comment on SLM's content, or on any other subject.  This format generated little interest.  Writers and artists published in SLM frequently write to the SLM editor regarding works in the magazine by others which these artists and writers admire; therefore, SLM would like to encourage its writers and artists to use the SLM Blog to communicate with each other!  Why not post your thoughts on works in the magazine directly onto the blog, and let the writer or the artist experience your feedback directly?  Toward that free4all goal, we have provided updated informational "about" and "how to" pages at the blog site.  We invite you to visit the blog, and to communicate with your colleagues!  You may also post your own new content, or merely read, as you like.  Link here to The SLM Blog <http://blog.spotlitmagazine.net>.  The SLM editors/publishers accept no credit nor do we take authority over comments or posts beyond those noted as SLM materials.  If you have any problems with your experiences at the the blog site, please contact <susan.hansell@gmail.com>.
