    Default Issue 13 update - Oh Bugger!

    Hello everyone,
    As you all know I recently assumed the position of Chief Editor for Flashing Swords Magazine. As with all transitions there have been some serious bumps along the way and this evening has been one of those. I have been having difficulty with the mail server we use for about a week, which is why some responses are taking longer than I would like. I regret to inform all of you that the majority of e-mails for the last 90 days were accidentally purged while attempting to integrate my personal access to the mail server. Basically although all the normal procedures were followed, the tech-gods burped and I?ve been left with a clean inbox.

    Some of you have already let me know what submissions you needed chased up via the message boards or submitted new material to my personal e-mail as well as sharing archives. All of that data is as safe and secure as it can be. If you have submitted a story or artwork to submissions@flashingswords.com within the last 90 days I strongly urge you to resubmit unless you have received some sort of personal communication from me regarding the status of your submission. Unless otherwise noted things are operating normally, I should be able to clear things up quickly and get back to editing issue 13. Once again I sincerely and abjectly apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you, our contributors and supporters.

    Respectfully yours,
    Neve

    Hi Neve,

    I am contributor to issue 12. I'm happy to see that you're developing the next issue of the magazine. But perhaps you could take a look at the flashingswords website? It doesn't list Flashing Swords 12 as an issue for sale, and the 'current issue' link is broken. There's an amazon page for it, but with no incoming links or reviews, I'm not sure how anyone would find it.

    Hi Jordan,

    The FSM site has now been fully updated. I'll chase someone up about uploading a cover image on Amazon asap as well. Thanks for your input =)

    Cheers,
    Neve

    Neve,

    Back before I gave FS to Janrae, I'd gotten Johnny Perkins to paint an image for the FS wiki page. My intention was to create a fake cover so that there were no possible copyright issues, and add it to the page. That never happened and I've since used them image in other things, but there's still no copyright issues with it. Do you want a copy of it?
