If you've never heard of the tiny town of Joes in northeast Colorado, that makes sense. There are, after all, only 80 or so people living in what could pretty easily and accurately be described as the middle of nowhere on the High Plains. The precise population of Joes is discussed a few times in The Alma Journal: A Prairie Sea Project, published by the Prairie Sea Projects Initiative through the Alma Residency Program, a writers residency based in Joes. With no apostrophe before the s, Joes does not belong to a guy named Joe. Nor are there multiple identifiable Joes living there. The Alma Journal reflects, however, through its eleven contributors that there's actually quite a lot going on there. The anthology provides not only a good instruction manual of what to look out for in Joes, should you opt to go. It also serves as an outstanding primer on how, if paying good attention, there's never actually nothing going on anywhere you may be. -The Rocky Mountain Reader
