aya aya niihkaania! I hope the arrival of this issue of SAIL finds you well and rested! It’s been three years now since we changed the editorial structure of SAIL to include an editorial board, and some of you have suggested that it would be useful for me to explain more clearly how the entire editorial staff of SAIL functions. I’m happy to do so, not just because I think it’s always good to keep ASAIL folks informed about the journal, but because I hope that it will prompt some of you to want to be more involved with the journal—as authors, manuscript readers, book reviewers, and editorial board members. At any rate, here’s how it works. The editorial staff of SAIL is comprised of a general editor, an editorial board, a book review editor, a creative submissions editor, the ASAIL treasurer, and an editorial assistant. Traditionally, the general editor of SAIL is selected through an open applications process by the outgoing general editor in consultation with the officers of ASAIL. There is no formal limit on the length of time that a general editor may serve; however, when I formally accepted the position in May 2001, I agreed to a five-year term with an option to remain for another three years if desired by the board and ASAIL. The duties of the general editor are fairly simple: to oversee the content, production and design of the journal; to negotiate with the University of Nebraska Press on behalf of the journal; and to represent the journal at professional conferences and in professional organizations affiliated with the study of American Indian literatures.
