If you have received word of acceptance and haven't yet done it, please send me a short bio and a link to your web site(s). I will be posting the first new material this week. Hurry if you want that information included.

Imaginaire....Reimagined
As you may know, Imaginaire has lately been on hiatus for two reasons: 1) I was unemployed, 2) there were not enough submissions of an entire issue. While item 1 is now successfully resolved, item 2 remains. Thank you to some help from readers, I want to keep Imaginaire going, and given that my time is now more at a premium, as I am working full-time, freelance editing, and building guitars, I no longer have time to compose entire issues in PDF format. Therefore, I am continuing this as an online journal, but it will be one with regular updates of stories and poetry. I will simply post material as I receive and approve it. I will probably be dropping my use of Submittable as a result. Details to follow (once I have worked them out). I plan to go through current submissions, respond, and then post one every other day or so until I run out of material. After that, I will post things as received. The exception (for now) will be Andy Breslin's Practical Applications of Game Theory, which I will post a chapter a week or so until I have reprinted the entire thing, so tune in for that.
In light of this, I'll be amending my submission policy. Submittable always delivers material to me in PDF, which is very difficult and time-consuming to me, especially if this will be a series of blog posts. Therefore, the easiest method, as I see it, may be to make use of Google Docs. Simply upload your story, poem, graphic novel, etc, and set me as a reader. My email address is joshuallen.writer@gmail.com. I will update the submissions page with this info. Upload as a text-based doc, not a PDF, and set it to private. If I think it is relevant, and worth posting, I will notify you. Every author will have the option of removing their work at any time. Simply message me and I will have it down asap. Think of Imaginaire as a showcase for your work. There will still be an editorial process, but not a traditional publishing timeline. I appreciate all your work and support. If you like Imaginaire, you can help by sending donations to the above email address via Paypal or Dwolla ($USD only, please).
If you have any questions, post a comment here, or email me. I will be updating the various pages to reflect these changes and will notify everyone via this blog when the first posting will be out. Now might be a good time to subscribe!
