Issue 10 of The Dark Sire
A lot has happened since our 2 nd anniversary .
JL Vampa got a great book deal , which limited her time due to editing , and thus she stepped down in November 2021 .
S . M . Cook , a long-time contributing writer and poet of TDS , then took up the EIC mantle to continue the TDS tradition .
Then , 2 nd Annual TDS Creative Awards was held on Feb . 20 , 2022 . It was a grand event , where new and old family members came together to celebrate each other ’ s achievements . A new Dark Sire ( overall award winner ) was donned – unanimously selected by both the staff and founder of TDS : S . M . Cook , for her poem “ Sired in the Dark .”
And now , TDS will go digital with weekly and monthly featured content . Starting April 6 th , 2022 , TDS will feature 1 creative every Wednesday . The creative will be promoted through interviews and readings . In addition , serializations will become a monthly installment on the website , released on the 9 th of every month . Paperbacks of online content will only be available twice a year .
And one more thing : Bre , our Founder and original EIC , is back ! She will be taking her rightful place as EIC on March 1 st , 2022 . I ’ m so happy to have her where she belongs !
Until next time ,
S . M . Cook , EIC Jan-Mar 2022
