what we're up to

i love a genre is devoted to the casual reader who prefers private eyes to public angst, extraterrestrial visitors to terrorist shock troupes and even idealized romance to the
problematic "relationships" that steer contemporary fiction.
We're aware that genres are born to be bent and welcome uncategorizable submissions.
Our formal launch is still a few weeks ahead.

What are we looking for in submitted material? A degree of brevity. I'd like to feature
at least two prose fictions and an essay or visual contribution in each number of this
blogazine. Willingness to challenge and amuse. It's possible to do both. Contributors
should send material to iloveagenre at buchcond7@gmail.com. We ask that contributors
identify their submissions' genre, i.e. satiric black comedy.
If you're a publication virgin, relax and don't forget to tell us how you would categorize
your story, essay, photos etc.

Lastly, anyone who wants to do a stint of guest editing is more than welcome. We want a
variety of POVs here, not a lone crotchety perspective.
