So, remember on Friday when we said we’d have a new issue on Wednesday? Well, it turns out it’s not quite June yet, so that would be the next next Wednesday. Sorry about that. We’re taking a course over the summer called “Introduction to Basic Calendar Reading” to help us avoid similar mistakes in the future. Gregorian? Julian? Who can keep that shit straight? But we will have a new issue up on June 6th, aka The Longest Day, aka next Wednesday.

Now probably wouldn’t be a good time to ask you to support our Kickstarter, right?

Probably not, but it is a good time to do something we’ve been meaning to do for a while. We already mentioned that Michael Sions story, “Jolly Roger,” was named a Million Writers Notable Story, and while we’re quite happy for Michael, just because storySouth doesn’t say you’re notable, doesn’t mean you’re not super-cool. So here (in no particular order and mostly off the top of our heads) are some of our favorite stories that we published last year. Check ’em out while you wait for the new issue to be released…on next Wednesday.
