Had to clamber over a barbed wire fence, rip my coat and trespass to get a photo of this folkloric monster pretending half-successfully to be a tree. I have no regrets.

People ask when we will open to submissions. Probably early in 2025. With a slight change. This round of submissions will consider stories and poems written by Canadians only. While weโve found wonderful work by non-Canadians, we need to return to our roots.

Using AI doesnโt make writing easier, it just robs you of everything that makes the hard part worthwhile.

Pouring one out for Francine Pascal, best known for the Sweet Valley High books (I read at least two dozen) and the pre-franchise Victoria Martin trilogy, starting with timeslip fantasy Hangin' Out with Cici, and ending with Love & Betrayal & Hold the Mayo, still an all-time great title. ๐๐

As 2023 closes, I have learned to not give up on my dreams. It was the year I achieved 5(!) publications through Ryga Journal, Hearth and Coffin, and a piece in an upcoming drabble collection. Cheers to more in 2024! ๐ฅ
