Hi,

I am the Correspondence Editor for a Projected Special Issue in the
Studies in the Literary Imagination edited by Shirley Geok-lin Lim. I was
wondering if you would be able to post this call for papers either on your
website or an e- mail listserv if there is one available. If you have any
suggestions about other websites or e-mail listservs where I would be able
to post this information, I would be very appreciative. The Call for
Papers is attached to this e-mail and also appears within the body of text
below.

Thank you for your time,
Stephen H. Sohn
