In the editorial department of Art Jewelry magazine, it's not uncommon to see one of our editors' doors closed, with a sticky-note reading "interview in progress." Usually, however, we're the ones doing the interviewing. This time 'round, though, the tables were turned. Check out the most recent podcast at craftcast, and you'll get an earful (in the best way) from Associate Editor Jill Erickson. In the 45-minute-long interview with host Alison Lee, Jill talks about her own artwork, the magazine, some of our upcoming stories, and how to get published.

While you're over at craftcast, check out the link for their first online master class, to be held Wednesday, May 28 (yes, that's tomorrow) at 8:30 pm Eastern Standard Time. Alison has roped in polymer clay artist Seth Savarick as her first master class teacher — once you register and pay your fee, you can listen to the class by phone or through your Internet connection.
