Find Somebody Itching for Something to Start: A Soft Announcement

In the New Year, I'm planning to launch a new print 'zine via Noisms Games, featuring original art, gaming content, and (yes) fiction, with an emphasis on the beautiful, the heroic, and the fantastical. I'm thinking of calling it In the Hall of the Third Blue Wizard.

The basic idea is to pay money up front for content and then use a Kickstarter to cover costs of printing and, hopefully, recoup other expenses. I will not contribute much myself; I would like to make the 'zine open for submissions, and selectively publish high quality stuff. I will think the venture a resounding success if I only end up publishing a small percentage of what is submitted. 

This is not yet an announcement or a notification of being open for submissions; I need to run numbers first and organise the website. Consider it the softest of soft launches, and await further news in early January.

  2. I could contribute stuff, though my ideas and tastes may be a bit too simple for some folks. See my blog for the kind of stuff I do.

  4. Love the name. I appreciate a tighter, more curated format. I think that'd compliment recent projects like the Knock! magazine releases.
