SNM March Issue is LIVE!

My first month of selections at SNM was not without its issues... I am just learning the game and how everything works, and February was a short month.

Despite that, we have an incredible issue for you. March Marionettes (clickables) is the theme this month, and I would say I couldn't have picked better stories myself, but I did pick them myself. I hope I did the magazine justice.

In this month's lineup we have...

Unconditional Love – Diane Arrella

The Finger Gave Itself – Nik Houser

Apart at the Seams – Sealey Andrews

Long Shadows – R.S. Pyne

Melinda – John Barnes

Daddy – Aaron Dries

Jax – Hayley Bernard

Stitches – A.J. Madden


Puppet Dreams – Steven Marshall - SNM Short Stories


SNM Dark Poetry Hosted by Kerry Morgan

And guys, don't forget to check out our Goth girls section!

SNM featured Goth Covergirl: Emma Ink

And remember that Shadowcast Audio is now doing podcasts of our stories of the month every so often, so keep a check back to see who will be featured next.

Enjoy the issue, and remember to leave comments for the authors on SNM's reader's guestbook.

Also, I'd love to hear from you about how I did with the selections this month. This is all about the readers. Reviews, comments... anything, please send it to me via my contact info on this blog, which can be found on my "Contact Me" page.

Enjoy the issue.

Whips & Spells,

And always Peace & Love,

Now reading... SNM

Submissions! Oh yes, my little fiends, I am reviewing for SNM Horror Magazine now. Fear my red pen.

Steve Marshall called me up one day and asked me how I'd feel about working for the magazine as the selections and reviewing editor. I was agreeable.

Now I'm doing the deed, reading stories and making selections. Today is my first "official" day. I'm just hoping I don't screw up fantabulously.

SNM is a good zine, and if you have something that you think will fit the upcoming themes, send it to us. The deadline is the twentieth of the preceding month (so the deadline for the March Marionettes theme would be February 20th) so spit shine your stories, polish, polish, polish and send it to: snmeditor(at)yahoo(dot)com

Submissions guidelines and monthly themes for the year can be found here.

Whips and Spells,
(And of course, Peace & Love)
