My career and family responsibilities are overwhelming right now and I am short on both time and money. It is my hope to resume publication in the future, or allow another editor to take over the magazine.<br /><br />In the meantime, Issue #8 will be our last for a while, and it will begin shipping next week. Any work accepted or under consideration is now released to respective authors for publication elsewhere.<br /><br />Thanks for the support over the years...<br />J.
