Here's an email I received today. As I told Rebecca I wished to share any information on this blog, and I've not been asked to keep this myself, I'm sharing it here.
Hi Patsy
I hope you’re keeping well.
We were in touch recently to let you know about the pause in commissioning on Fiction Feast, and I wanted to share a further note with you as several writers have asked me about what will happen to the magazine.
We have been reviewing how best to support its long-term future and exploring opportunities in our current editorial and operational approach.
So, the July issue of Fiction Feast has been created using a combination of stories – some writer commissions and some in-house creations from the Fiction Feast team.
We have also introduced the use of AI tools exclusively for our in-house stories, so our editorial team has more time to do what they do best and focus on quality and creativity. And we will be exploring this further in the coming weeks.
Again, I wanted to tell you how much we all value the enormous contribution you have made to Fiction Feast, and your kind words to the team.
Wishing you all the best for the future.
Rebecca
