Needless to say, it's been a bit of a week. A number of us (editors, writers, readers) have been scatterbrained or have cocooned, or have simply been tired. The result is that our current issue is currently... one poem. And reviews. (Props to the impeccable reviews department.)

More is coming. By the end of the week, we intend to have our second poem ready (maybe by the time you read this message it's already up), and new fiction. I can't tell you exactly when. But we're still here, still working. A bit slowly. A bit tossed around. But here.

On that note, we're getting pretty close to the end of 2024, and we still haven't published the Japanese SFF special issue we promised. That's still coming too! But it will come out some time in 2025.

Thank you for reading; for writing; for funding; for dreaming. If you keep coming back, we'll keep coming back too.
