Join us in celebrating our newest issue. Buoyed by the continuous flow of fine work we have received over the years, we’re refreshed and fulfilled to offer Issue 10.
Panoply continues to evolve. We added a guest editor and somewhat tightened up our requirements for inclusion. We have always striven to be inclusive rather than exclusive, but found ourselves overwhelming our readers! We’ve had to turn aside so much worthy work. This was a painful if undesired and unplanned conclusion. Penance aside, we’re thrilled and uplifted to bring you Issue 10. Even with our changes, we continue to read blind, focusing on the writing, not the writer. We relish the results and hope you do too.
Look for more innovations soon; we have a few editorial and publishing tricks up our sleeves. And of course, we’ll be posting Editors’ Choices shortly, followed by our nominations for the Pushcart Prize.
As usual, we thank our contributors and readers, who keep this going, both as a tangible result and as a spiritual journey. Peace and love,
Andrea, Emily, Jeff, and Ryn

Thanks for your interest, Mary! The Call for Issue 11 recently closed. We plan to publish it around January 4. Look for our Call for Submissions for Issue 12 in late February. It will be posted on the site, on our Facebook page (panoplyzine), and though various billboard services. (Feel free to Like our FB page!) Issue 12 should be published in late April to early May.
