REVIEWS OF LOWESTOFT CHRONICLE

"A tip of the hat (sombrero, fez) to Lowestoft Chronicle for fueling our urge to turn off Jersey Shore, toss our cellphones into a lake, and go embrace this amazing planet of ours. Bon Voyage!"
— Franz Wisner, New York Times bestselling author of Honeymoon with My Brother (www.honeymoonwithmybrother.com) and How the World Makes Love (www.howtheworldmakeslove.com)

"Lowestoft Chronicle is a wonderful new addition to the world of creative writing."
— Tony Perrottet, acclaimed travel writer and author of The Sinner's Grand Tour, Off the Deep End, Pagan Holiday, The Naked Olympics, and Napoleon's Privates

On Lowestoft Chronicle Issue 6

"The concept and the layout are wonderful... I've read two or three pieces so far, and—WOW."
— Abby Frucht, author of Fruit of the Month (Iowa Short Fiction Award), Snap, Licorice, Are You Mine?, Life Before Death, and Polly's Ghost

"My two major complaints about numerous online literary magazines are … [t]hey are so confusing and disorganized … stories are boring and the poetry is derivative and lacking in creativity. I am happy to say that this young journal manages to avoid these pitfalls. Lowestoft Chronicle's website is nicely laid out and there is wide variation of reading material. This is an eclectic journal which stresses that it likes humorous pieces with an emphasis on travel, hence many of the works take one to far-away and exotic places."
— Henry F. Tonn, NewPages

On Lowestoft Chronicle Issue 4

"Go ahead, read it right now. I'll wait… Fun, huh? Thought it might pep up your midweek. All things considered, it might just be a very good thing if the Lowestoft Chronicle were to achieve their goal of world domination. Best wishes to them!"
— Cheryl LaGuardia, E-Views, Library Journal
