The Spring 2007 second issue of Coyote Wild is now online. Calling itself “an online quarterly of speculative fiction and poetry,” the writers’ guidelines answer the question “What is Coyote Wild by saying “In Native American folklore, Coyote is a wise trickster. He does the unexpected while imparting new wisdom and insight to those with whom he comes in contact. In nature, coyotes are solitary predators and scavengers. Their nighttime calls speak to the soul. They are adaptable and thrive in nearly every environment. They are not shy about exploiting the occasional lucky break, either. At Coyote Wild, we strive to embody all of these traits through the writing we publish.”
