NOÖ Journal and Magic Helicopter at the Behest of Bessy Best


Trumpets around the internet literary scene lately, with the Wigleaf Top 50 Very Short Fictions 2009 and Best of the Web 2009 from Dzanc Books.

We're happy to report that pieces from NOÖ appear in both: Carrie Spell's "It Was Only Two Months" is in the Wigleaf Top 50 and "Babyfat" from Claudia Smith will appear in Best of the Web 2009.

Not only that, but Nick Antosca's "Rachel Mia's Existence", Noah Cicero's "Two Hard Workers", and "Babyfat" all appear on the Wigleaf Top 200. Meanwhile, Magic Helicopter authors Jimmy Chen and Benjamin Buchholz both have pieces in Best of the Web 2009.

Many other wonderful past NOÖ contributors appear in both collections, but it's up to you to find them. Scavenger hunt!

Congratulations to everyone and many thanks to Wigleaf and DZANC for their terrific work in putting these anthologies together. Go net lit. Net the lit go.
