from the publisher

january 21, 2002     

Talk Magazine suspends publication, while On the Page continues with failure.

This week, OtP offers more rejection, demise, and missed opportunity. Begin with our quote of the day and tour our quotes of yesterday. Then continue to Bratislava, where Chris Togneri reveals a socialist transportation experiment gone awry in Don't Throw It in the Danube. Take a look at life between black and white in Leo Vanderpot's poem about artist Paul Caponigro. Then move on to the Chesapeake Hotel for the conclusion of Edward Belfar's short story. I suggest you end this leg of the journey with a visit to the winners of our 150-word challenge. Afterwards, you'll be ready to travel the highway to happiness, where OtP editor Vera Djordjevich shares snippets of wisdom from L. Ron Hubbard, including such useful tips as school "is not a place where one manufactures parrots" and "movie stunt men who don't practice first get hurt."

As always, we love to hear from you.
