New Voices: Maybe you've got oneI’ve noticed lately that this blog is receiving a lot of really funny, eloquent, well-written comments. And I’ve also noticed that several of our more regular readers are younger than me, and still in school. So it only seems right that I link New Voices, in case people don’t already know about it.

And just what IS New Voices? Well, besides being one of the best Jewish magazines around (no kidding)…

New Voices is America's only national magazine written by and for Jewish college students. Published since 1991 by the independent, non-profit, student-run Jewish Student Press Service, New Voices is read by over 26,000 students on over 400 campuses across the United States and abroad.

Certainly, our oh-so-writerly college-age commenters should submit something to NV, and certainly NV would be thrilled to hear from our Jewcy clan. (submission guidelines are here)

Not just because it’s a chance to network. But also because writing about a Jewish topic is the best way I know of working through that topic, thinking about the subject matter in new ways, researching new angles and other people’s perspectives.

Like someone very wise once said to me (probably quoting someone even wiser)… writing is the best way to figure out what you didn’t know you knew.
