NOTICE:
FMAM's annual shut downs for new submissions are June
1 to Aug. 1 and Nov. 1 thru Jan. 10
These
two periods of time allow our editors to catch up on the
large volume of submissions.
REMEMBER
that we are always accepting your contest entries, year
round, AND, we also have occasional theme issues that
stay open to new subs during these hiatus times, as well
as our annual DIME mystery
anthology.
Look
into our new FMAM list for new and not so new writers
and artiststhis includes cartoonists and screenwriters
and you name it, we welcome YOU to join us! The original
plan for Futures when I started it was a world wide writers/
artists community. I felt we could help one another
and together do what we might never achieve by ourselves.
This list is the next step to the dream! You might be
interested in this for any number of reasons, to learn,
to teach, to network, you name it. Let me know if you
have a special suggestion, otherwise, welcome, jump on
in! - babs
