I received so wonderful feedback from an agent last night on my last submission of Moon Madness, so I am in a real good mood.
Here's some interesting things going on that I want to pass along:
Noctem Aeturnus
Noctem Aeternus is having a subscription drive. We need your help.
We pay our writers and contributors (ten-cents per word) through the advertising we receive for the magazine. However, in order for us get advertising, we need a good circulation, because folks buying adverting want a lot of people will seeing their ads.
Therefore, the more email addresses we have signed up will help us keep the magazine active. Without a healthy circulation, we won’t be able to pay the writers.
Point folks to sign up at www.michaelknost.com and to follow the instructions for subscribe.
Or send a blank email to
NoctemAeternusMagazine-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
and follow the instructions.
