Volunteers old and new: The Divine Daphne is still the editor who makes us look like -- I don't know, think of the most fabulous writer and you'll know just how good Daphne is. She has the gift for stripping away the dreck, without sacrificing the writer's individual voice.
Then there's Sir Alan Scher, he is a great writer and our favorite reviewer. He's always game and a good soul to boot.
