You’ll see some changes in the current volume, some in response to reader feedback, some just ’cause I felt like it.
Readers were pretty much split down the middle on how often FM should come out, with slightly more than half preferring the weekly format, the rest preferring monthly or quarterly. To accomodate both tastes, FM will continue publishing weekly, and will also offer a quarterly, printable pdf edition beginning in April (i.e., including all work published January-March).
To receive notice of weekly updates, email editor@ficklemuses.com with the subject line “Subscribe.” To receive notice only when quarterly editions are released, use the subject line “Subscribe Quarterly.” (Current subscribers who want to continue receiving weekly notices, do nothing.)
We’ve also switched to relative text sizes. If your browser is set to view text size at “medium,” text should appear roughly the same is in volume 1; to get larger or smaller text, adjust the size on your browser.
That’s about it for house keeping. As always, send comments to editor@ficklemuses.com. Hope you all have a happy & creative year!
– Sari
