It's that time of year again. Culture's editorial brainstorm is in just a few days, and we need your brains!

This weekend, culture's writers, editors and assorted cheese people gather again (this time in snowy Vermont) for the annual editorial meeting, where we hammer out ideas and directions for the magazine (& website) for 2012. But we can't do it alone, and I'm not talking about the catering.

Let us know what we should do next. What stories do you want to see more of? What angles haven't we covered yet? It's an open floor, and I will read your comments aloud to the assembled throng. This is your chance to let us know what's working, what's weak, and what you want to see in culture in 2012.

Throughout today and tomorrow, culture writers, editors and assorted n'er-do-wells will be gathering in sunny Somerville, MA to brainstorm about ideas and directions for the magazine. And then, candlepin bowling.

But we're just a small crew, so we need all the help we can get. Post your ideas and suggestions to this thread, and I will pass them on to the editorial team. Let us know what you think!
