Twilight Times ezine was on hiatus from January 2010 to June 2012, but we are re-launching with the July 2012 issue. Going forward, we will be publishing on a regular quarterly schedule -- Winter (January 2013), Spring (April 2013), Summer (July 2013) and a special Halloween issue (October 2012). We need poetry and stories for the Halloween issue as well as the Winter issue. We will be open to submissions from July 15 to August 5, 2012.

Many thanks to the talented contributors who are sending us the finest in speculative fiction, poetry and fantasy artwork. This is the thirty-third issue of Twilight Times ezine - online since July 1998.
