I'm the guest editor for issue seven of Colored Chalk.
This is not a paying publication, but we’ve received work from a number of name authors, including Stephen Graham Jones (and more that we can’t officially announce yet, but be sure to check coloredchalk. com when issue six launches on 1/31).

Issue seven is “MacGuffins for Hire” and deals with valuable objects.

You can find guidelines here: http://coloredchalk. com/modules/smartsection/item. php?itemid=114

Deadline is February 28th 2009. I look forward to reading your work.

Thanks,

Colin McKay Miller

knappy ho-lidays, Velvet.

oh and stephen, i found out a while back that you taught at texas tech for a while.. lubbock is my hometown, and i probably would have been in your class if i had decided to go to tech, haha... damn.

Go the Velvet.

Thanks so much for the info about Godspeed. I loved the Phineas Poe trilogy, and I know Godspeed is going to be great, too. Craig- Your Contortionist's Handbook rivalled Fight Club in my book,and that's a very tall order. Dermaphoria was great, too, and I can't wait for novel #3. And Stephen- Demon Theory was a definite work of experimental fiction, and I applaud you heartily for it. I found it easier than All the Beautiful Sinners. Keep up the great work, everyone, and you will rock the world.

Guys, please tell me whatever happened to Godspeed. I've looked long and hard for answers, but none ever seem to show themselves.
Is Will ever going to release it?

I'm mega happy to be added.
I fucking LOVE you dudes.
