On Hiatus
This short post is just to confirm what regular readers of Whispers and Echoes might have already guessed; that the journal is currently on haitus. It is a post I wasn’t looking forward to writing, and to be honest, I kept putting it off, and putting it off, and putting it off, until I could put it off no longer.
I had hoped to be able to be in a position to open submissions back up at the end of March, but now, a third of the way through May, I still don’t feel like I am in the right place to do so. If you have been following my personal blog, you will have noticed that since the new year, I have been inconsistent and somewhat unreliable in my blogging habits.
In an attempt to get back on track, I’m currently working through a bit of a reset and so naturally some areas have to be put on hold, and Whispers and Echoes is an obvious choice. If I know I haven’t the time and the energy to dedicate to it, nor the required focus and concentration to give it my all, I cannot in good conscience ask writers to trust me with their work. And that is something I will not do.
If any emails have been sent to the journal since submissions closed last year, these have not been answered, as I have not been checking them. However, I will eventually get around to doing so.
How long do I expect this hiatus to last? Hopefully not longer than a couple of months. I anticipate reviewing this towards the end of July.
Thanks so much for your support and patience.
