Coe Review

Kaitlin Emig lives in awkward moments.
Elizabeth Eslami received her B.A. from Sarah Lawrence College and
her M.F.A. from Warren Wilson College. Her work has appeared in Thin
Air, The Steel City Review, The G.W. Review, Bat City Review, and Weber:
The Contemporary West. She is currently working on a novel and a collection
of short stories, and lives in Oregon with her husband and their big,
black dog.
Virginia Floring lives in a little white house with a handful of cats, a
whole lot of rose bushes and sets things ablaze when the moon is full and
the wind is right.
Iris G. Garcia is from Albuquerque, and she is a senior at Coe. She loves
the Coe Review and gives it a place in her tiny heart (3 sizes too small). She
is realizing that although Coe has been her nest for the past four years, it is
very likely that the rumors from seniors past will be true and on May 4th
she will get a friendly, "Now, get out." Presently her "Mood" is: terrified.
She still writes her "I" as an upside down "T."
Emily Ingalls is a sophomore from St. Louis Park, Minnesota. She is
majoring in psychology and hopes to go to graduate school for Counseling/Clinical
Psychology. She enjoys overwhelming herself with activities
and has loved the flashback to high school laying out the Coe Review has
provided.
Leta Keane is a junior who hails from the Chicagoland area. Despite the
repeated warnings of her friends and family, she persists in her ambition to
write for a living.
Kyle Mangan is the kind of person who needs constant reassurance, or
else he'll start acting up and moping about. He thinks he's a genius, quite
possibly the funniest man alive, and at least twice during any conversation
will find a way to work in the phrase, "You know, some people say I've
never failed to satisfy a woman." It's best not to acknowledge this, save for
a reassuring nod, at this point he will offer his hand for a somber high five,
you're going to want to accept. Trust me.
