Okay.
After a prolonged squat and too much time listening to Polyphonic Spree (http://www.thepolyphonicspree.com/main.html) over and over and over and over again, it's time to get Teemings (http://www.teemings.com) going back on a regular and more consistant basis.
If you're not aware (and there are a lot of new people here who might not be) we started Teemings to showcase the writings, artwork, and creative endeavors of the teemings millions. You can read what passes for a "mission statement" here (http://www.teemings.com/introduction.html) and if you can get through that laughable little piece of doggerel without wetting your pants, our editorial guidelines are fairly straightly set forth here (http://www.teemings.com/editorial_guidelines.html).
Right now we're a little backed up with submissions and to be honest we get way too much poetry submitted to make even Barrett Browning comfortable. So we're going to slap together an issue with all of the backlog we've got which should hit the web about January 1st or so. Just flushing out the pipes, so to speak. But don't let that deter you from sending us your best; I did a small stat search on the site the other day and was surprised to see how many people were actually reading us. And you.
We're also still accepting submissions for Teemings Extras (http://www.teemings.com/extras/index.html) where we feature work that has already shown up on the message board, (with the reprint permissions from the authors, of course.) The difference is that the main 'zine is all original. Extras is for SDMB reprints. Let us know if you see something you like; the only restriction we ask is that you don't nominate your own work. (Someday we're actually going to get the entire Lord of the Rings (http://www.teemings.com/extras/lotr/index.html) site up. I promise.)
Also, take a look at the Teemings Cookbook (http://www.teemings.com/cookbook/index.html) and the Teemings Gallery (http://www.teemings.com/gallery/index.html); two projects that we haven't spent a whole hell of a lot of time on but might need to be re-invigorated as well.
One sad note; Juniper200 has said that, life being the kettle of salmon that it is, this will be her last issue as copy editor. So we are looking for another volunteer or two to help out. It doesn't pay anything, but I will send you a coffeee cup or something.
