More! Yes....that's right....right there....!

I have been reading and reading. I don't know if folks realize just how much reading is involved in a publishing business--even a new one, such as this. There is a LOT to read.

Because we are so particular about what we will publish, unfortunately we reject most of what comes through our submissions portal. I suppose that's just the way things are, and I do feel twinges of sadness when I reject a story, but that's what has to happen if I'm going to publish only the best.

This takes time, and I thank our loyal readers for hanging in there with us. This is also a reminder about our general call for submissions; if you are in a writing group, feel free to share our link:

http://submissions.paper-bag-press.com

Send in your best stories, and we'll read them! It's what we do.
