Today it's been all over the blogosphere that Realms of Fantasy is being closed down by Sovereign Media after its April issue.

It's sad to lose any magazine in our field and I feel badly for Shawna McCarthy and her staff, who put a lot of themselves into the creation of the magazine.

The managing editor Laura Cleveland provided information on the closing to SFScope after rumors started earlier today. Those rumors began when Cleveland herself told an unnamed writer--before management alerted the staff (including Shawna, who is in Italy), the columnists, the authors whose work is in inventory, (some of which was purchased a mere week or two ago) or anyone else. Of course, the "writer" blabbed all over the net--and Cleveland is surprised.

I'm happy to consider you for SF&F; I just don't have any idea what's going on with children's/YA here at the moment.

Thanks to the helpful passing-along of information from a friend, I just sent off my pitch.
