The Lovecraft Ezine Presents Making the Cut - Mike Davis - Bog

When I began publishing The Lovecraft eZine in February 2011, I didn't know editor Ellen Datlow, but her anthology Lovecraft Unbound was foremost in my mind. I don't think I've ever told her this, but for me, it became one example of the quality of stories I wanted to publish. Less than three years later, she has put nine stories in Lovecraft eZine on her 2012 "Honorable Mentions" list. That means more than I can say, and it feels like I've come full circle. To get a "thumbs-up" from Ellen Datlow...wow! But I'm just the editor -- it's the authors in this book who really deserve the accolades. Congratulations to all of you! And, thank you. You brought your "A game" to this little online magazine, and I feel lucky to have writers like you sending me your work. I also appreciate all of you who support Lovecraft eZine with donations, with your time, or with your talent. You make this magazine -- this community -- possible. Community. You know, more than anything else, I'm grateful for that. The Lovecraft eZine isn't just a magazine any more -- it's a community of Lovecraft fans. We're friends. We're family. Here's to many, many more years with my fellow Lovecraftians.
