reminding anons who don't already know to submit anything they want to lamp.lit.magazine@gmail.com

we need:
flash fiction,
short stories,
long stories.

trying to limit anons to six pages max that doesn't seem to be an issue so far.
anyway im gonna let the thread float down and whoever catches it catches it. thanks bitches.

>> No.17047437

>>17047399
checked.
actually they are based. there are currently three..? intermediate sized nonfiction submissions , two are about commie blocks.
only one of these are formatted from canva (it looks dope); most of the submissions are unformatted. there are some cool memes this time around too im stoked on that.

REMINDER to go to canva.com and start making designs. it is so easy and satisfying and once you get into it you will probably relish producing a whole magazine of stuff like i did.

i don't know yet. have you received your refund in full? if so then yes you'll have to reorder. if not then maybe not.

its been a fucking headache trying to get at them. i've sent them an email and i'm still waiting for a reply. i figured they would be on it today though.
what i may try to do is find a different service.
i used MagCloud, and the support email came from Blurb. so i might just go straight to Blurb and try to get it printed.

okay so i'm going to work right now. i'll be able to work on this from there.
i'm switching over from MagCloud to Blurb directly. so i will have intel regarding that soon as my feet hit the ground.

i'm bringing in another designanon to help with layout for 002. just sent him the WIP.

Hey OP I have an idea for a series of article. It would be about a semi-known author's biography in a /lit/ style. I think that concept may help anons discover gems they may not know about. Also, would the magazine be monthly? I can probably do that every month for a bit.

>> No.17060959

I'm concerned that the plethora of lolsorandumb crackhead schizolology in the magazine is going to threaten to bury good expository writing, which I want to contribute. However I also recognize that restricting people's freedom of contribution is against the basic values of the publication.
The only evident resolution to this dialectical problem is for me to create and submit fiction of my own to counterbalance the dryer articles, which I loathe to do.
Fuck.
