It’s hard to write this, but here goes: Pyre Magazine will be closing down at the end of this month. Despite my hopes to reopen submissions and expand, the truth is that I simply don’t have the time, energy, or resources to keep it going.

Maybe, someday, Pyre will rise again in another form, when I have the freedom to give it the attention it truly deserves.

Disgusting—PREDATORY—behavior should never be tolerated. Call it out and cast it out of the community.

I've already posted my wishlist for the Weird Horror call I'm co-editing over at Flash Fiction Online. What if I now post a *vibes* wishlist in the form of classical paintings 👁🫀🔪

"From the Tweet thread, it seemed that Kucero was the alias and John's real last name is Siepkes, but don't quote me on that." xitter.cf/TheBitchinK/status/174…
Editors, be aware: John Kucera has been plagiarizing recently in at least two publications.

Give Val’s original story a read! It's wonderful.
Replying to @spacevalkyries
Anyway please go read the original. It has two giant queer robots falling in love and just trying to exist under dystopian space capitalism. It's a piece that has a lot of my gender feelings and means a lot to me so it being plagiarized feels bad. escapepod.org/2023/12/14/esc…

@PyreMagazine are on hiatus until at least Spring 2025. Ryan Thomas LaBee, rest, look after yourself & family. I've shared your announcement on a couple of writing discords so people know.

Well, serial/prolific plagiarist John Kucera is at it again. We received a submission titled "Twilight Mind," after a quick Google search, it's easy to find that the story is a word-for-word copy of a @spacevalkyries story titled "Emotional Resonance." Be vigilant editors.

My short story, That Damned Yellow Raincoat, appears in the Fall/Winter 2023 issue of @PyreMagazine! Available now in physical & digital formats. I'm honored to be among so many great writers. If you saw the movie, this fiction version includes more of the story. @ChicagoHWA
