Hot Metal Bridge This Way Please Coming Soon!

Kelly — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 17:28:41 +0000

Dear Readers, writers, friends, curious ones, ex-lovers, those eating lunch:

Our fourth issue is nearly set to debut! Like an anxious dancer it waits in the wings, pulling down its too-short tutu.
Barrring any kind of editorial/personal meltdown, the finest fiction, art, criticism, nonfiction and poetry we could find should arrive on your proverbial doorstep this Monday.

So tighten your suspenders, friends. We can’t wait to hear what you think.

Yours,
The Editors

Submit! Submit!

Dear friends,

We are now accepting submissions for our fourth issue! Please send us your damned finest writing in nonfiction, poetry, criticism, or fiction. Submissions close on September 30, a date that hastens upon us like sleep, the desire for cheese, and the spectre of Ichabod Crane.

See our call for entries. Drink Ovaltine. Submit today!

Yours,
The Editors

PS: Hot Metal Bridge now has a Facebook group. That’s right. Join it.

“American Light” Coming Soon!

Kelly — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 12:52:12 +0000

Hot Metal Bridge’s third issue, “American Light,” is set to debut at any moment. Please expect it by/on April 1.

We apologize for the slight delay and promise to repay you in gold coin — or rather, in fiction, poetry, nonfiction, criticism, and art, all of which we’d take over gold any day.

Yours, with anticipation,
The Editors

Submission deadline: onward, ho!

Kelly — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 03:16:41 +0000

Our spring submission deadline is so soon, you can smell it: like that strange perfume your grandmother used to wear, like the shepherd’s pie you forgot you were reheating, like the rugby player who chose to sit next to you on the bus on the rainest day of the year.

Luckily for you, Hot Metal Bridge is both more fortunate and more attractive than a slack-jawed neanderthal. Also, as an online magazine, it has no odor to speak of.

Submit! Submit quickly! And make it good.

Yours,
Kelly and Ashleigh

Spring submission deadline fast approaches!

Kelly — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 16:53:44 +0000

Like the four horsemen of the apocalypse, like Oprah’s inevitable weight gain, like warmer weather, eventually, in Pittsburgh, our spring submission deadline descends upon us! In less than two weeks, on February 25, 2008, we’ll lock ourselves in dark rooms and begin to make our publication decisions.

We’ve received some impressive submissions already, but we’re still waiting for you, o unheralded genius, to send us your work. Check out the call for entries and send your most brilliant words to the appropriate genre editor.

We can’t wait to read what you’ve written.

Best,
Kelly Ramsey and Ashleigh Pedersen
Co-Editors in Chief
