Addition to the Adult Writers' List
• CheerLiving is a free online magazine
about cheerleading. It's published up to four times a year. Their
contact page says,
"We're always looking for all levels of cheerleaders, coaches, parents, choreographers, and
other cheer professionals to share their stories and tips." Submissions can be done online or
they give this as their address:
CHEERLIVING® Magazine

Additions to the Young Writers' List
• The Louisville Review is a literary
magazine published by Spalding University. They accept submissions of previously unpublished
poetry and fiction from students in grades K-12 for The Children's Corner section of the magazine.
There is not a separate URL for submission guidelines, so just click on the link given on the
homepage. This is a non-paying market; they do provide contributor copies.

Calliope
As of September 2014, Calliope no longer exists as a separate magazine. It has been folded into Dig,
which is now bigger and is called
Dig Into History.
Rosalie Baker is still the editor. [Thanks to Marcia Lusted for this update.]
Wily Writers
Wily Writers is being
discontinued, but its collection of stories will remain available on the website. It's being replaced by Another
Dimension. The
site describes the new publication as having "a more focused theme, that of classic-style Horror and Dark Fantasy,
as seen on the television shows 'Night Gallery' and 'The Twilight Zone,' produced and often written by Rod Serling."
Issues will be released quarterly in both text and audio formats. I am not choosing to include Another Dimension
in my ezine's list of markets, because the submission guidelines say, "Gore, sex, and adult language okay." I know
YA writing sometimes include these, and I do have YA magazines on my list, but I want the links on my website to
be kid friendly, so it won't be listed.
This and That
• Suddenly Lost in Words has reopened submissions after a short hiatus.
• Knowonder is currently closed to short story submissions.

Discontinued
• Pack-O-Fun magazine has ceased publication.
• Spellbound's site says, "Over the past several weeks it has become apparent that the mental health issues I
have been dealing with for more than a year are keeping me from running Eggplant effectively. At this point
I have decided to close the company down since I cannot give it, the authors and readers the attention and
effort they deserve."
• Bumples appears to be non-existent.
