Second Issue

Now OPEN for submissions regarding the theme "Wunderkammer".  The issue should be out by next week, so hurry!
Genre: Medieval Fantasy/Steampunk/anything Whimsical or Fantastical
Will NOT accept horror, gothic, or supernatural.  No "dark" stories, poems, or artwork.
Defined in the dictionary, wunderkammer means "a place where a collection of curiosities and rarities is exhibited".  That is exactly what I want: stories of the curious and rare nature.  Anything that is quirky and strange--think Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan.  Twists, endless staircases, a child with an imaginary friend, a boy who never grew up...a raven and a writing desk.
Artwork: I want quirky pictures that don't really explain what they are--think strange like a staircase with hands, a mad hatter sipping tea, talking candlesticks...you get the idea.
Look under "Submissions" on the top for contact information.
