New Yorker's Queries Newsletter Returns This Fall

The New Yorker's popular Queries newsletter is set to return this fall, offering readers another chance to delve into the intricacies of language, grammar, and style. The series, which ran for five weeks earlier this year, tackled complex copy questions from New York magazine and readers alike.

Behind the scenes of Queries is Carl Rosen, the magazine's copy chief since 2000. Rosen, who oversees the style and grammar of New York, also hosts the limited-run newsletter. His role involves making corrections and suggesting changes to help clarify the writer's voice, a task he describes as both a science and an art.

Rosen particularly enjoys working with imperfect copy, finding ways to polish it without losing the writer's unique perspective. This approach has earned him a dedicated following among readers and writers alike, eager to learn from his expertise.

The next edition of Queries is scheduled to launch in fall 2025, promising another round of insightful discussions and practical guidance on language and style. Rosen's involvement ensures that the newsletter will continue to be a valuable resource for anyone seeking to improve their writing or simply indulge in a fascination with the nuances of language.
