Latest Dark Animus news (6/6/8)

The original purpose of Dark Animus, was and is to give exposure to the work of emerging writers, artists and poets.  With increased print and post costs however, it has meant that our production schedule has slowed considerably since 2002 so that we are no longer efficiently meeting that aim.  As a result, we have decided that as of Dark Animus #12 we will be going to an electronic format and as funds permit we will be producing special print editions like the Dark Animus 10/11 anthology edition.  This will enable us to return to the 4-issues a year that we originally started with.

What does this mean for existing subscribers?

Existing subscribers will receive the new issues in CD format posted out to them until their subscription is fulfilled.  We will not be posting CD's to new subscribers, only existing subscribers to fulfil their subscription.  

What about new subscribers?

New subscribers will be able to view Dark Animus online.  We will be purchasing professional software so that the issues will be able to be read online like a magazine and will have an attractive format.  The software will also allow readers to print the issue out themselves should they so choose. 

The E-zine format will be sold at a considerably less cost than what any print edition would have cost.

The intended release date for Dark Animus #12 will be September 2008.  Dark Animus #13 will be January 2009.
