Alex , I read the articles you had in The New Writer recently, and was very impressed. I liked the - give it everything you can attitude, that came across in what you said. I’ll certainly give The Seventh Quark a go. And good luck with it!

Alex,
Might I suggest an entry in the WW Directory for your magazine? - it won't cost you anything and it should generate submissions, maybe even subscriptions! I need:
Name of magazine
Web site (if any)
E-mail address
Postal address (if you want to disclose it)
Phone/fax numbers (if you want to disclose them)
'Useful information' (eg submissions policy, payment, particular interests - max 100 words)
'Key words' (eg 'fact', 'fiction;, 'short story', 'craft'...whatever best describes the content.
Good luck with the venture.
