It's taken a lot of time to get the second issue up -- it always takes longer than we expect -- but at least it's here. Finally. There is some really high quality writing in Urban and we are proud of everyone's work. We had to reject a lot of quality pieces because unfortunately they didn't fit the theme closely enough. Hopefully our feedback to these writers is encouraging. One of our greatest aims is to encourage new writers and new writing, so if you have received feedback from us, let us know if it was useful or not; and if it was not useful, tell us how we can improve it. We are really keen to hear from any artists out there who might like to work with us as cover artists. If you are keen to have your art appear on (or in) Harbinger, drop us a line and we might be able to work something out. 19 May 2007 Well, we got so many submissions for the second issue, 'urban', that we are still going through them and our targeted launch date for the second issue has been pushed back further and further until... Yes, anyway. We are in the process of bringing it online to you, however, and it will hopefully be up and accessible within a few weeks - and certainly before the end of June! In the meantime we are still open for submissions generally. Our next issue WILL be themed; so watch out for further announcements in the coming weeks. Our new theme will be launched at the same time as our second issue. 14 April 2007 You may have noticed that our website continually changes. Our most recent redevelopment has been in a bid to increase our web-traffic. It also means that our pages are generally more consistent, and easier to get to. As our journal is continually evolving, we appreciate all comments about the functionality and readability of the site. We also appreciate suggestions for coming issues. We are still receiving submissions for the second issue, which is fantastic. We've also received interested queries from artists looking to submit cover art, which is something that we always appreciate. Our submissions close in roughly two weeks, so there is still plenty of time to get your material in. And remember, if you miss this deadline, you can always submit your work for issue #03! 26 March 2007 The first issue, as you may know, was launched at the end of February, and we've had lots of lovely comments from those who contributed, and from general readers. We aim to put up a comments page at some point in the future; in the meantime, if you have comments please email them to us at [email protected]. You may have noticed that we EXTENDED THE DEADLINE for issue #02. The reason for this is that throughout April many of our team are away: some go away over Easter, and others over Anzac Day. So, instead of having contributions sitting there and authors getting fidgety, we've etended our deadline until our team are all back on deck. It also gives people the chance to use their days off to polish up their work! If you have any queries about the next issue, please email our editors. In the meantime, our MySpace page is getting bigger, as is our network. MySpace is where we post bulletins, blog what's going on, and generally keep the world informed, so if you want regular updates about what we're doing at Harbinger, that's the place to go to. 4 March 2007 Getting the first issue up was a bit of a struggle. We coped with unexpected hardware issues late in 2006. We dealt with unfinancial positions, illness, food poisoning, and lots of travelling in between. And yet Harbinger. is finally a reality. The inaugural issue is a triumph for all involved, and the next issue is under construction as this is being written. Our site is now fully functional, and we look forward to gaining further contributions for the second issue. We are aiming to have the second issue up by the end of May, so get back to your desktop and get writing! The deadline is 7 April 2007.
