Spiff in a urban grungy sort of way.

It’s not quite done yet. The plan is that eventually the image on the splash page will change each time people come back to it, to either a cover or illustration that relates to one of my stories. But Gra had to run off to Europe before that could get finished. Something about zombies, I think. It was hard to hear over the screaming.

They announced it yesterday, in their new issue. I really liked Universe, and thought they had some good ideas on how to create a successful online magazine. Unfortunately, I guess I was wrong. So there goes another short story publisher.

I have faith that the short story market will survive. Hell, someday I think it will thrive. The web and e-readers seem to be made for it. I just wish (like a whole hell of a lot of other people) that I knew how.
