For the record, we spent a small fortune for the privilege of our distribution & now our books are sitting in warehouses we have no contact information for or access to, thousands in inventory, with no promise of royalty payments at all. My authors’ words are in boxes… 1/3

At 3:58 pm yesterday evening, my specialist confirmed no signs of official cancer relapse! Now, to focus on the neurological issues. Onward.

Let’s make this clear. Yes, I’m disabled. I’m ill. ELJ is NOT closing, pressing pause or taking a hiatus. It’s surrounded by supportive staff & warm community. Yesterday’s tweet was about transparency. We are here. We are human. We care about this community. These are the facts.

How many times do you sub your work until you resign to kill your darlings? I’d like to invite you to sub any piece you’ve had rejected over 15 times by Tues @ 10 a.m. EST. It might not be accepted, but I’ll give you personal feedback. Write “Kill Your Darlings” as the sub title.

ELJ and hundreds of publishers just lost their distribution via an email with no warning from SPD with no exit plan for our books. I mean, like, I have 80 books in transit for a PO they just ordered knowing they were going out of business. Wtf? #isawthiscoming 1/2

We're still open to manuscript #submissions through 4/1 for 2023 publication! Send us your chapbooks or full-length collections. Send us your hermit crabs, your epistolary, your ekphrastic, your CNF, your novella. How can there be guidelines if we want to read everything?
