For the last several months I have served as co-editor of Nossa Morte, a dark fiction e-zine created by my wife. We went into the venture with only the highest hopes in mind. We want this to become one of the best fiction magazines out there. I’ve been a firm believer from the very beginning that we could reach that goal.
Well call me presumptuous, but I honestly think we’re well on our way. We’ve got 2 issues in the bag and the feedback has been very positive so far. We seem to be attracting more well-known writers with each passing issue. (This is not to take away from the legitimacy of our Issue#1 contributors though; I’ve been immensely proud of the quality of submissions we’ve accepted even from the beginning.) We’ve also noticed that many writers who didn’t submit before are submitting now after seeing the growing roster of fellow writers who have graced our covers as well as the awesome stories we’ve had the privilege of publishing.
So you can hold me to this prediction: within a year, Nossa Morte will be well-known. Maybe not Cemetery Dance-kind of known, but it will definitely have made a name for itself and carved out a nice little niche in the industry.
Check back in a year.
