From the Editors
Last week, our new line of serialized novels was launched with K.C. Ball’s Lifting Up Veronica. The first five chapters are available for your reading pleasure (start with chapter one here), and if you enjoy them, please consider subscribing so you can keep reading with us. It only costs US$5, and in addition to enjoying a literary suspense novel in a cutting edge format, you’ll also be supporting the free-to-read magazines that Every Day Publishing offers (Every Day Fiction, Every Day Poets, Flash Fiction Chronicles, and Ray Gun Revival). As an added incentive, everyone subscribed by February 3rd will be entered in a draw to win a print of the cover art. Thank you for your support.
If serialization really isn’t your thing, consider supporting EDF by subscribing on Kindle, or simply by making a donation. Or find some other ways to help us. We’ll love you for it!
For Readers
Being February, and the month of Valentine’s Day, we’ve got a sweet selection of stories for you, leading up to “Divine Intervention” by Joanna Bressler on February 14th. If you’ve been around EDF for a while, you’ll also notice quite a few familiar names in the table of contents this month, and of course we’ve got some fantastic newcomers too.
For Writers
We’re pleased to announce that slush reader Sealey Andrews has been promoted to Editorial Assistant. This also means that we have an opening for a new slush reader. We may also be looking for a volunteer copyeditor shortly, if someone with decent WordPress skills and a sharp proofreading eye happens to be interested in gaining some experience with us.
For themed stories, we need St. Patrick’s Day and Easter and Passover pieces, and we’re generally pretty much done with the winter/snow pieces and ready to move on to springtime.
