I confirmed this at a meeting of a writing group I belong to (The Final Twist) yesterday as this publisher is also a member. I have two short stories coming out in a mystery and a romance anthology with them. Their anthologies cover many different genres and heat levels. I highly recommend this publisher.

Kevin Lucia - New Ezine: 21 | The Magazine of Ultimate Creativity
"There's a new Ezine out there called 21 | The Magazine of Ultimate Creativity. It's their first issue, and they don't offer anything in the way of compensation past a publication credit, but it might be worth submitting a story to them, especially because it's the first issue and if you've got something good, odds are good of getting in. It's a nice little place, especially because it basically accepts ALL genres, which is a good thing; it's a Christian publication a lot like The Relief Journal, and The Bohemian Alien. Anyway, don't be put off by the fact their website is at Freewebs right now; I just finished working with their editor on two of my stories, (which they are going to print), so they seem very professional and focused."

News worth reposting:
NexGenPulp - Subscriptions, submissions, and seeking old friends!
Unfortunately for reasons unknown to the rest of us MySpace occasionally deletes a perfectly legitimate profile. This was the case for NexGenPulp. Fortunately they were able to set up their new profile really fast. If you were listed as a friend on their old profile, please go to their new profile and sign back up. For those of you who didn't sign up the first time, now is your chance. Be sure to check out their website (www.NexGenPulp.com) for both subscription and submission information. ~ Jim Cox / NWSFS on MySpace
