At that meeting, James Schiff, author of several books on contemporary American fiction (including three on Updike), was selected as the journal\u2019s editor, with the University of Cincinnati serving as the journal\u2019s base of operations. Although the journal is housed within a state that borders Updike\u2019s Pennsylvania, we are in many respects an international journal. The members of our editorial board, comprised of scholars who read and review our submissions, come from eight states within the U.S. and three foreign countries: France, Serbia, and England. In addition, among the first thirty submissions received were essays from writers in Japan, India, Israel, France, Ireland, England, Poland, Canada, and the United States. <\/p>\n<p>With a lean staff of two, the journal relies on Nicola Mason, who serves as Managing Editor of\u00a0<em>The John Updike Review\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Editor of Acre Books. Nicola worked for many years as an editor at\u00a0<em>Southern Review<\/em>\u00a0and Louisiana State University Press, and also as Managing Editor of\u00a0<em>The Cincinnati Review<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Copies of the <em>JUR<\/em> are mailed to all members of The John Updike Society.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the link to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.updikereview.com\/\"><em>JUR<\/em> website<\/a>, where you will find information on submissions, back issues, and institutional subscriptions.
