...to say goodbye. I really, really hate this, but it's true. It's just time. We've been doing this for 4 years now and I truly believe that it's time for someone else --someone new and fresh-- to take our place in the ezine world. Our traffic has never been higher and I'm consistently honored by the quality of submissions we receive by the dozens each and every day. So it's not that. It's just, well, I don't know. It just feels 'right' to close up shop. I think that if you keep at something for too long that you become static, weighted in the past, and incapable of creating new and exciting things. That's where I think we are.
Don't get me wrong - everything we've published WE LOVE. Our writers and artists ROCK , all of them, and this truly has nothing to do with anyone but me. I need to change to become new again. And I want to go out while still on top.
I hope you, our beloved readers, will understand. The subs have been closed but we will stay up for a couple more months so that our authors can access what they need through our archives.
Questions and Comments are welcomed here or you can send me an email at editors (at) edificewrecked (dot) com.
I truly love you guys. Thank you for EVERYTHING.
XOXOXO,
Leigh

Agh! I seriously JUST found you guys this week! Of all the cruel jokes for the universe to play upon me! Well, I guess I'll just have to burn my way through the archives.
There's a lot there! Enjoy :)
Ah, I'm saddened by this, Leigh, but I totally understand. I think one of the most important things we can do in our lives, both personally and as writers, is to listen to that voice inside and follow it.
Thank you for brightening the literary world with this wonderful endeavor! May your next journey be as successful and true of spirit.
What sad, sad news! It's one of the ezines I truly respect (and I have always loved the name of the 'zine), and it's just a pity to see it close. Is there no one else who can take over the excellent leadership of Leigh and team?
