Your Summer Blog Blast Tour

Check out Colleen Mondor's blog for the Tour schedule for YA authors being interviewed across the blogosphere. The Tour started on Sunday and finishes this Saturday.

Still open

Hi everybody.

It's been brought to our attention by a kindly passerby that some markest listings are listing us as temporarily closed to subs.

This is *not* the case. We're still open to submissions, and we'll make an announcement here if that changes.

We still have a few slots to fill in our first year's worth of issues, so keep sending us the good stuff!

Shiny Natcon

Since I'm the one with nothing to brag about, it's my duty to blog that all three Shiny editors went to the latest Australian Natcon, where the three of us met for the first time. It was very cool to hang out with my co-editors, who are three times more charming and intelligent in person than they are in blogland.

Tansy launched her very cool children's book Seacastle, at a very swish do at the Melbourne library.



Alisa picked up three Ditmar awards for her editing work at ASif!, including the Best New Talent award... the first time the latter has ever been won by an editor!



And I achieved nothing, but just generally had a good time

Peace out,
