Recently, I was finishing out the contents for Electric Velocipede #17 (which won't be published until 2009). I had a couple thousand words available, so I added a few stories to fill it out. Then I decided I should look at what I've accepted and rough out how many issues are already filled.
Whoah. I have a lot of material. I have material to fill through half of Electric Velocipede #20. (And #14 is still working its way through my production process) I'm upping my production model to work through it in a timely fashion. I'm publishing three issues this year (14, 15, and 16) and four next year (17, 18, 19, and 20), for a total of seven issues by the end of next year! In a lot of ways, that's very cool.
Now the bad news. With April 1 just around the corner, I've decided to leave subs closed until further notice so that I don't end up having work that won't be published for years.
And, yeah, it sucks, 'cause you all are writing smart stuff that I want to be buying. But the last thing we all need is for me to be a story hoarder.

There's a simple solution ... anthology. ;-)
Aw, damn, I was looking forward to the submission period reopening. But hooray for loads of issues coming up over the next two years!
Looks like I had impeccable timing! Wish I'd had the chance to send more, though...
(Also? I'm with Steve. Anthology!)
Well, as soon as that check from Steve clears, we'll begin printing that anthology!
:)
(just kidding Steve!)
Yeah! I'm with an anthology. . .When should we send stuff for consideration in it? hehe

P.S. Or, you could make the issues larger and perfect-bound. . .
