When
cornerflag first put out a call for sign-ups a few years ago, nobody involved in the project anticipated that it'll be more than a one-shot. Happily, fandom's enthusiasm for the anthology outstripped its initial modest ambition -- though, admittedly, some of my wishes for it turned out to be not so modest after all (e.g. I'd originally envisioned putting out a call for fan artists to make a cover for each issue, but that got too hard to manage). It's been a pleasure and a privilege to work with all of you: writers and readers and everyone else who made
cornerflag what it is.
I apologise profusely for the long silence. My life has gone through quite a bit of upheaval in the past year, most of it for the good, but between postgraduate studies and moving to another country I've had very little time for my other loves. Therefore, I'm taking a year-long sabbatical from
cornerflag and, sadly, football fandom in general.
But never fear!
cornerflag isn't dead. Or even hibernating, as it were. The lovely
meretricula and
stickmarionette have bravely stepped up to the penalty spot. They'll be running
cornerflag for the next year, and I'm sure that the next issue will be a joyous one. Say hello to your new overlords editors, gentlebeings. ;)
See you in a year, and again: thank you so much for everything.
