Looking for Robert Cotta, who wrote "The Only Computer Crime for Which Theologians are Consulted" for the November 2021 issue of &amp magazine. If anybody can get me in touch with him, I'd be very appreciative. Thanks

Don’t worry if your work isn’t excellent— you’ll never improve unless you keep trying! Also, if you want someone to edit your submission and offer suggestions for revision, just mention that in your email and we might be able to work out a way to get you some feedback.

I think you should do it— you can submit anonymously if you want, or use a pseudonym. But even if you submit under your actual name, I doubt that it would show up if anyone googled you or anything like that.

>> No.20489622

>>20489586
There's nothing wrong with being associated with 4chan. Braindead retards who would try to cancel you over being on LE ALD-RIGHDE website would try to cancel you over literally any other place you may have made a misstsep in their eyes; and all these "people" fucking see are missteps.

&amp accepts all sorts of content, as long as it’s your own original work and is well-written enough to be readable. As far as I know there aren’t any strict guidelines on the length of submissions, but I’ll have to get back to you on that. Not sure what happened with the delay between issues, but fingers crossed that we’ll be on track to publish on time in July.

It's about a girl growing up and leaving the farm. I'm trying to tie in themes of inevitability with how her family can't sustain the farm anymore and she has to make a decision about what to do. I've been reading a lot of Joyce recently with Portrait, so those themes of growing up are real fresh in my mind.

Can I submit improvisations?

Like these two:

1

The spoken paper and she comes in
She is here to kneel on the couch
And scream go the mirror to drink
And stand by the door with her ears
Made of marble and her eyes made
Of silky candle wax, the paper
To trotting go the road of violins
And orchestra music an oboe
No drums, no visible pins, feather
Rolling picks up sits by the running
The spoken paper pauper corner of the eye
It’s only for laughs, when I tell you
I copied or when I write I ate whale
And the next day I ate whale eating
The largest heart of the world
And the next night I ate plagiarism
Copyrighting Orpheus sleeping lines
Everyone slept and the next night
Everyone slept and the next night
Everyone slept and the next night
2

I’ve broken my knuckles
The whirlwind on my lungs
I’ve become empty
Dramatic and cold
I don’t even walk the streets
No more
I’ve read all the signs
The river has sung
The murky water
That runs at my soles
Wrinkled and cut
I’m a stranger
And I have no fate
I’ve broken down my joints
Down to the marrow
Almost nothing left
I’m now too dramatic
Exaggerating each phrase
Maniacal
I will not give life a rest
I’ve broken a rook
The queen and a knight
I’m on my last pawn
The king is exposed
I’m just a victim
Of an electrical design.
