I wanted to pass on the good news to my writer friends, if you have something you want to submit, check out the guidelines at http://www.lldreamspell.com/Anthologies.html ~ Cornelia Amiri"

Submission period from Jan 1 to March 31, no reprints, and pay is $50 per story.

***** Jenna Black - Home Vampire Hunters Game "If you'd like to hunt vampires from the safety and comfort of your own home, stop by my Fun Stuff page and play the Home Vampire Hunters Game."
***** 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."

StoneGarden Publishing - Three New StoneGarden Books Available for Pre-Order "Blood and Rain, The John Dark Series Book 1" by B.L. Morgan. ISBN 1-60076-067-8, $12.95 In the drug infested streets of East St. Louis, alcoholic John Dark gets the cases deemed too dirty for the cops to touch. Battling grime with grime, Dark does his job without a touch of class and sans any emotion, until…. When his cases getter weirder, and darker, John Dark finds enough heart to save the day, save the girl, and just maybe find his way home again. This exciting detective story by Bob Morgan will pull you into the depthless shadows of the crime-ridden streets, and into the horrific cases of John Dark.
"Trash Cinephile"by Blake Ryan. ISBN 1-60076-060-0, $12.95 "Trash Cinephile is an irreverent guide to 99 intriguing examples of exploitation cinema from a wide variety of sub-genres. These are films that are often branded as B-movies, Trash films, and also rather unfairly as ‘bad movies’. Many are so bizarre that they defy any kind of generic definition; which is why you will find the films discussed within these pages gathered together in eight very loosely themed chapters." "Sophistry by Degrees" by Robert Starr, $9.95 "It all starts with an old black and white photograph-the kind with a fuzzy background, an indistinguishable set of gray squat buildings, and an old black Model T parked against the curb. Maybe because the photographer-whose identity has diffused to oblivion like an early morning mist over a lake-was an amateur; or maybe because he or she adjusted cumbersome shutter speeds and f-stops so that the middle-aged man leaning against a lamp post beside the car is clearly the subject. Either way, it was an old photograph he found hiding in the middle of a dog-eared library book."
