Cemetery Dance magazine to re-open to submissions later this year

[Lauren Dixon]

One of the things I emailed the Submittable folks about is whether we can change the status to anything else. For example, it would be nice if we could have that say "Passed First Reader" or "With Associate Editor" or "Under Consideration by Cthulhu" -- whatever applied to the submission -- so that authors would at least know some progress was being made.

That would be very cool while also frightening. I worry what Cthulhu thinks about literature...

[Nik Houser]

I particularly love that it says "Help battle the bots!" Creeeeeepy.

[Nik Houser]

That's a really cool idea, Brian. The Cthulu part reminded me of the time I was buying tickets on Ticketmaster, and for the Captcha thing they make you type, it gave me this...

..."Under Consideration by Cthulhu"...

Brian

So THAT'S what you've all taken to calling Mr. Chizmar, is it? Haha.

But seriously, if that was ever the status of a story I'd submitted, I'd screen-print it and frame it!

That would be awesome if Submittable could do something like that. It would likely drive me insane, though, with constant refreshes. :P

Mine's in-process, Lauren.

Good luck to all who are still waiting.

[Kristopher Kelly]

Have any of the rest of you found out about your stories yet? I'm still on pins and needles! Richard, I can't wait to grab a copy of your story!
