Hi All,
Coming out of lurkdowm briefly because...well, i met some of
you in toronto and you're not as scary as you appear in print
:o)
I saw the noir face off panel on Saturday morning and agreed
with everyone (what can I say, I'm easily persuaded). Great
panel, as was the noir one on Sunday with David Montgomery,
Charlie Stella, Victor Gischler, David Corbett and Terence
Faherty.

BULLET is a pretty good one. Here's their website: http://www.bulletmagazine.co.uk/index.htm
It's the only one I can think of.

The very thought of any Rara Avians having short stories
published in The People's Friend makes me laugh. I think when
they say their readership ranges from 30 to 80 they're off by
about 30 years at both ends. On an unplanned visit to ER once
(and aren't they all?) I was stuck in the waiting room with
nothing to read but a 3 year old copy of The People's Friend.
The nearest the magazine gets to hard-boiled is if you forget
to switch the kettle off while making a nice cup of Earl
Grey. No violence. Or sex, drugs or rock and roll. Although
you might get away with a story about a wee old lady with an
addiction to Dundee cake and a twinkle in her eye as she
listens to her Engelbert Humperdink records.
Cheers,
Donna
