When I started writing this blog, it was with the intent of showing what goes into the production of a small science fiction & fantasy magazine. Obviously we don’t have a lock on the only way to do things, but I think the blog has been pretty successful in revealing the day-to-day operations, the long-term […]

Sory for the lack of posting in the past few days. The release of Issue 12, and then me and my whole family getting sick, slowed us down considerably. I think we knew we were all getting sick even back around the 30th, but we beat it back until after our party and the release; […]

What an awesome day! The LGBTQ issue has been released! The early response has been wonderful! To our utter delight, today has been the best single day of traffic to our site… EVER. Not by a small margin either, and there’s still a couple of hours to go. And people are staying and reading, too! […]

In a couple days there will be anyway! Sorry about the lack of posts. We’re working hard, really! Yesterday there was a lot of reading. We’ve reached the point where submissions increase at the end of the month, so I sent out a few more to slush readers. We’re still pretty far behind the August […]

SPONTANEOUS CONTEST FOR A FREE E-SUBSCRIPTION! It seems that the rush may have waited until the VERY end to hit; we’ve received a clutch of submissions all within the last few hours. So I just now (literally, like a minute ago) decided to spontaneously give away a free subscription. Take a guess at how many […]

Today was primarily a reading day. We had a mild uptick in submissions, which we hope means we’re hitting that rush we’ve been half-expecting. We’ve already read a few that we’re extremely pleased with, and barring some huge surprise will almost certainly be going in. That’s a good feeling, knowing there’s already a few that […]

Okay, so this isn’t as big a deal as it’ll be when we publish our twelfth issue, or get our 1000th subscription (ha), but it’s a big deal to us, a confirmation that CG is really growing by leaps and bounds. Today we passed our previous monthly high for page hits on the site… on […]

Okay, that’s a slight exaggeration. But still, as near as I can tell, between the 2 of us, Kay and I read around 86,000 words today. We’ve just about gotten through all the submissions; then we’ll go back through our pared-down list and keep narrowing until we get to 5 (give or take 1). Currently […]
