THIS IS
WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO:
Scroll down for contest
deadlines . . .

We finished proofing and
sent it to the printers. Now we're addressing envelopes, attached
stamps and waiting to get the copies from the printer! We're
very close now.

We are two pages away from
finishing the next issue! I may get it finished tonight, but
if not, then by Monday for sure. Then it's just a matter of
printing it and mailing it out!

I've updated my list of subscribers
and authors who have not received all their issues/copies --
because they've moved and not let us know about it! If you're
on the list, please update us! Just click on the feedback page
-- the list is there!

It's been a long long LONG
time since our last issue. We're working on the next one, with
contest results, fiction, poetry and more. If we don't complete
the issue by the end of the month, we will stop publishing
Tickled by Thunder and make arrangements for returning subscriber
fees.
We have always sold subscriptions
by the issue, but for some reason we also refer to four issues
a year. We've always tried to meet that schedule but rarely
succeed. We'll be changing this reference from four issues
a year to two issues a year. I believe we can handle this....
We're probaby not going to
do the Year's Best anymore, but I haven't made up my mind.
I'm still not publishing author's chapbooks for the foreseeable
future.
Anyway, all this is moot since what is required
first is that we meet the February deadline. And it's a short
month...
We
have published a chapbook on writing the short
story, by Quinn Tyler Jackson.
