Words@Forgetmagazie.com
has been an active mail link on the
internet for more than 20 years.
Subsequently, it gets an enormous (the
technical term is a 'fuck-load') and
disproportionately strange type of
email on a nearly constant (like
second by second, not day by a day, or
some weak bullshit) basis. Opening the
inbox is looking in awe, wonder and
occasional horror at what a consistent
presence of 20 years in the twisted
teeth of the Internet machine
waste-land looks like. T. S. Eliot
never wrote no emails, remember that.
Here are the last three emails that
arrived while I wrote this, and our
responses. By the way Forget
is now accepting (and you
know, uh, reading) unsolicited
submissions again. Send
them here.
Make them good.- Ed.
