DARK SUMMERIt's back! The summer issue is the only issue to have a theme, and it's DARK SUMMER. What does it feel like, taste like, smell like for the creatures of the night - during the hottest time of year? Let your imaginations run wild and picture gothic, horror, fantasy, and psychological realism in JULY. Think graveyards, the lake/ocean, old abandoned buildings, the woods, house parties, and anything else that summer calls "home" - and then twist it into darkness. Monsters, vampires, and slashers encouraged. Poe, King, and Rice will be proud of this issue! Deadline: 6/30.
