June 2023 Mews
Some Updates for the Peeps
We apologise for any recent delays in responding to emails, requests to be added as a writer, or stories submitted.
On June the first, Louise, half the Catness editorial team, suffered a stroke, and has been trying to get back full mobility. Bruce, spouse to Louise and the other half of the Catness editorial team has been trying keep the home fires burning as well as tend to Catness.
Anyway, as a result, things may get sluggish around here for a bit.
We love to get your stories, photos and poems. But (yes, there is a “but”), we would greatly appreciate if you will follow the submission guidelines, because we really hate to hassle you to change your submission, or in extreme cases, to turn it down. (These remarks are directed to the very few Catness writers that sometimes forget the guidelines.)
So, in summary, Catness does not accept anything that is not a strictly personal poem or story (or fiction). There are plenty of publications on Medium that would work for those other types of article. For example, our friend and Catness writer Beth Bach, is currently working on a new cat related publication, that might work for other types of story.
Just a friendly reminder from one of the editors.
Hoping that the next Mews will see all editorial staff bushy tailed, beady eyed and in full health.
