It is time to clean the slate, rid out minds of manic clutter and focus on the real future.

We are still open to submissions on a rolling basis, but may close submissions temporarily depending on what happens to volume in the coming weeks.

We've been kicking around the idea of theme issues, so keep your eyes open for some announcements in that vein in the near future.

As such, we are continuing this strange journey and seeking additional material.  So do you have a short story, manifesto or poem that you would like to see appear on the 'mat?  Send it to twistedthistleproductions{at}gmail\dot/com.  Please have your submission directly in the body of the email.  We hope to hear from you soon.

We've been busy lately.  The first acceptance and rejection letters for Loquacious Placemat will be sent out by the end of this week, (though we do not yet have the issue filled so feel free to send more!).  We are currently pricing printers and trying to engage a new sponsor since our original backer has hit a stumbling block.

If nothing else, Loquacious Placemat will debut online and in a limited print run 08/01/2009.

Eric Stoveken's collection of short stories: The Devil Yearns for the Pefect Denver Omelet and Other Revelations is designed and laid out and will be ready to launch as soon as rights issues are solidified.

Fuck 'Em!: The Healing Power of Spite is going to be available as a podcast by the end of this summer with interactive live shows to follow in the fall.

Fun times ahead.  Want to get involved?  Feel free to contact us.

Twisted Thistle Productions is on the move.
