So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish
Dearest Contributors, Followers, and Friendsāā
It is long past time for a status update. I am pleased to announce that the long-delayed June 2015 issue that turned into a June/August 2015 combo issue that turned into a Whatever-It-Is-Now issue will be published. Possibly before the end of February. I can be confident in this assessment because we/I are/am not alone. The long-awaited print issue, bursting with prose, poetry, and visual arts contributions that are not to be believed, will be published in partnership with @punkswritepoems.
This will be our final print issue. I have struggled with the fact that my mounting business, financial, and social obligations leave little time to continue this magazine in its present form. Because of all of this, I have made the decision to discontinue print publication for the conceivable future.
You may have noticed that submissions are closed, and have been for about a month. A few of you submitted towards the end of 2015āāthose submissions have been saved asĀ āunreviewed submissions,ā which basically means that if you havenāt received an email from me your submission hasnāt been looked at by anyone. For all intents and purposes, you can pretend you didnāt submit it at allāāthe outcome will likely be the same.
We will remain as a Tumblr blog, and hope to pursue some online publishing and promotion of writers in the coming months. So watch this space (figuratively, of courseāāif you literally watch this particular space it will never change and youāll be disappointed) to see what the next iteration of A Literation becomes.
I greatly appreciate the enthusiasm, passion, and support of this community.
Keep creating,
Jen
