Steve,

Congratulations. I look forward to working with you, I can only hope you will put up with my multiple murderous submissions as much as Terry did.

Good to have you on-board.

Sincerely,

Kevin

Congratulations Steven on the new position as Editor in Chief. I hope you still feel excited about being EiC in six months (having worked with Terry both as editor/writer and in the hospital, I know it can be trying at times). I look forward to working with you in the future and here's to a long run as EiC.

I was reading throught the forum this morning and ran into this post. LM Mercer said something like lets see how excited you'll be in six months. Well, I was did my math right this month is your sixth month as Editor in Chief of The World of Myth. So, how do you feel about it now Steve, the same I hope. LOL!

TJ

I am sincerely happy and excited for you, Steve. Congratulations!!!

I read your "Talk Show" story part one (after reading Casket Case), and I even went into the archives looking for the 3 parter, accidentally stumbled along "Ferried Away" by Terry (which was fantastic), and I was blown away. I imagined a movie in which the character reaches into his mailbox, the arm elongating, just like the scene out of the story.

A FANTASTIC writer, too!!

Has it really been six months? How time flies! Am I still having fun, you ask.

Well, I'm, working with a great team of staff members. We've made numerous improvements to the magazine and hope to implement more in the future. Editors & Predators recently conducted a poll in which voters picked TWoM as their second favorite "fictionzine" out of more than 80 entries. It's the equivalent of a silver medal.

So am I still having fun? More now than ever! Being named as EiC for TWoM is an honor and privilege. I hope to be doing this for a long time to come, depending on how long Dave can put up with me.
