Etchings 9: Love and Something ... update
2nd Jun 2010

With the many changes surrounding the new Etchings at Ilura Press, our editors are still going through the many submissions we've received for Issue 9: Love and Something ... To those who have been patiently waiting for our response regarding their submissions, we apologise for the delay. If you have not heard from us yet, do not be disheartened; we are in the process of finalising submissions and will notify everyone within the next month.

We are all looking forward to producing the finest issue of Etchings yet! In the meantime, please continue to stay tuned for more updates.

If you have submitted to Etchings 9: Love and Something......
22nd Mar 2010  

Etchings is undergoing a major revamp to make it edgier, fresher and more visually exciting. Unfortunately this means Issue 9 has been delayed until October this year. Please be assured your submissions remain under consideration, and if you haven't heard already we will be notifying you of the outcome of your submission by May. If you have not been successful this time, we strongly encourage you to monitor our upcoming themes and resubmit your future work. We sincerely apologise for the delay but hope you will be as excited as we are by the new-look Etchings.

At this stage there is no closing submission date for Etchings 10: La Femme, which will be published in March 2011. Please continue to monitor the website for updates.
