Probably 9/10 of you have already either put your votes in or decided you're not interested, but this is my last-minute plea for the other two of you. ;)

We're a little late to the game (still doing everything we can to get Issue 5 spick and span and out to print), but with just another day or less in the readers' poll, we thought we'd give you a nudge you and put our name in the hat.

We'd most appreciate help in the categories of "Best Fiction Magazine" and "Best Poetry Magazine", but anywhere you felt like giving us a nod would be most appreciated! I can personally vouch for the Preditors + Editors folks, as far as filling out the readers' poll--they won't spam you, and won't keep your email address beyond verifying it and limiting you to one vote per category.

Best Fiction Zine (ignore the "e-zine" bit)

Best Zine Editor (Julia Bernd -- GUD Magazine Issue 4)

There's plenty more to vote for, and it's truly a readers' poll--you can just write in anything for any category if that's your mind. Everything on that list has been put there by someone writing it in, to start with.

And no worries if you feel there's another magazine more deserving of your vote, or if you simply don't have the time or interest. We understand. And on that note, we're back to the grindstone to get out the best magazine we can....
