Jesus, my heart skipped a beat.

So sorry it came to this, Daniel.

Don't be sorry! The books are worth every bit of the toil and labor and the experiences connected with PB will be uplifting to me for a good long time to come. Though I wish things would have ended differently, I've no regrets!!!

And I am eager to see what the future holds!

BTW, I'd like to thank you, John, for your wonderful creative skills and for your friendliness and support in the early days of PB and throughout our tenure.

You are a true gentleman and a gifted writer; it's been a pleasure working with you and I hope we will work together again in the future.

Flashing Swords was one of the first e-zines to publish a story of mine and pay for it. I really have Howard Jones to thank for that, but ultimately thanks should go to you for providing the market. I'll miss it.

***

Flashing Swords E-zine is presently on hiatus. I plan to revive it. The site will stay online and I will attempt to get a new issue out
at some point soon.

Flashing Swords E-zine no longer has any relation to Pitch-Black LLC; however, I remain editor-in-chief.

So, FS E-zine will be back!!! It may be a few months, but we'll put out a new issue and open for subs again.

It's good to hear Flashing Swords will be back -- and that the site (as well as this forum, I take it) will remain online.

First post, and on a not so great topic.  confused
 
Bruce Durham's advertising his stories on a forum he moderates attracted me to Flashing Swords.  I followed it as best I could and enjoyed it.  Today I noticed the pitchblack.com links weren't working.  I guess this is why.
 
I'm happy that Flashing Swords will live again.  FS provided a valuable entry into the Fantasy/Sci Fi Market for new authors and gave Sword and Sorcery fans new fiction to enjoy.
 
Good luck!
