I’ve recently sent a bunch of updates about submissions, unfortunately a number of those were rejections. I’m sorry. I will be continuing to work through the first reader responses (and the stories they have passed on) and get notifications out to everybody. I normally get some time to sit down process stuff on weekends.
If anybody knows much about the Mantis bug tracking system, i’d like to make it visible to everybody so people can see where their submissions are but i’m not sure how to set up the permissions yet.
I have received a number of submissions over the last week. I haven’t done anything with them yet, which is why you wouldn’t have recevied a confirmation email. These aren’t lost, I will get to them in the next 48 hours.
Also, if you were interested in doing book reviews for the magazine we are looking for more reviewers.
