Dear Readers and Contributors, The number of submissions for Issue #15 was less than usual, and it took somewhat longer than anticipated to fill the issue. Issue #15 is now full, and the editing and layout can begin. The publication date has now shifted to the end of September. I apologize for the delay. Please look for your contributor's copies at that time. -The Editors

Dear Readers and Contributors, As noted above, Samsara is currently open to submissions of fiction, poetry, artwork and photography. If you are submitting photos, please submit black and white only. We are also planning to feature a poet of the month on the Web site if enough interest is generated, so please feel free to submit poetry for this if you are interested. Make sure that you mark these submissions as "Poet of the Month". If you're looking for a good read, pick up a copy of Issue #14! Celebrate the Spring! -The Editors

Some Featured Writers in Issue #12:

TIPS TO WRITERS/POETS: Bear in mind that Samsara accepts mainstream, science fiction, fantasy, and horror that has suffering as its theme. All of the above types of stories/poetry have been published in Samsara. Make sure you give me honesty, intensity, and fresh imagery.

You may wish to query first before sending your manuscript due to the fact that Samsara has a somewhat irregular reading schedule. Electronic queries are okay, but I do not accept electronic submissions at this time.
