Trilingual Three Factorial is bursting at the seams with translations of poetry from Japanese to English, Japanese to French, French to Japanese, French to English, Japanese to French to English, plus some Visual Japanese poetry, Japanese Sound Poetry, in other words it's exciting, authentic, contemporary, and�ostly Japanese.

Equally exciting is this new call for work for the next issue: the Four Factorial Speed Round!
All submitting and editing will take place within the next 1.5 months - submissions will be accepted from now through the end of October, and will be read and edited by guest editors chosen semi-randomly as I travel around the states - in Boston, Amherst, NYC, Chicago, Milwaukee, Madison, Kalamazoo, NYC, and San Francisco. As soon as I have 10 submissions I will send the package to a guest editor, who will choose selections to go into the Second Round. I will continue this as I travel throughout the month, choosing a new editor for every 10 submissions. As soon as there are 10 submissions that make it past the First Round, they will be passed on to a Second Round Guest Editor, and so it goes.
