Shadowed Realms Closes, Story Dies
Maybe I’m a death knell for zines, since Surreal Magazine closed after accepting one of my stories, and now Shadowed Realms is closing — although at least it will publish all its remaining accepted authors before shutting down. I’m glad that at least my story will come out, but it’s too bad that it’ll only get published long enough for the zine to fold. I wonder if it’ll keep its archives online for a while?
Shadowed Realms is — was? — a SFWA-approved horror zine market (for sales over $50, anyway).
I keep watching Ralan’s site and seeing the list of zines going down, and it’s quite grim. Online publishing just isn’t a money-maker.
