Hi
I just became the poetry editor and music reviews person for a new magazine called 2M. I would really love it if you could send a shout out to all the wonderful and talented Echoes poets regarding sending in submissions for possible publication, especially the regulars and those already on the staff. Here is more information on the magazine and submissions.
send me some quality work:
tnewbill@darkmythproductions.com
2M Magazine Guidelines
2M Magazine is a PRINT magazine paying $0.01 per word for articles, fiction and $5.00 for poetry author ($5.00 per poem maximum).
Literary Arts (Short Stories and Poetry) - We promote a high standard of excellence in our literary arts.
Fantasy - All fantasy (dark fantasy, surrealism, magical realism, traditional fantasy). The worlds and/or fantasy creatures must be believable and well developed. We want to be drawn into your story and left gasping for breath, and when we're done , we insist you leave us begging for more.
Horror - Any type of horror pushing toward intensity or fear. Must hit hard and fast. Bottom line: scare us.
Action/Suspense - We want to feel what it's like to disarm the bomb, run for your life, or negotiate the terrorist threat. We want the real thing with vivid images and detailed action; we want to feel our blood boiling and hear our hearts thumping.
We claim first world electronic rights, first world print rights, first print rights for the production of signed/numbered limited edition chapbooks (author must be willing to sign 100+ chapbooks), and non-exclusive anthology rights.
Detailed guidelines for 2M Magazine can be found at darkmythproductions.com/2m/index.html
Short Stories, Articles and Poems - We seek literary quality articles, fiction stories and poetry with emotionally charged writing. Fiction, articles and poems must be exceptionally well-crafted. Stories and poems must encompass the Fantasy, Horror, or Action/Suspense genre. It may overlap. For example, your submission may be a dark fantasy or detective story with dragons. In addition, it may overlap with other forms of speculative fiction or genres. We will consider science horror, dark romance, etc.
We are not interested in graphic violence, gore, sex or foul language for its shock value, especially the vain use of God's name or f-words.
We encourage poetry in any form, including prose poems and traditional forms. For poetry, each issue will try to publish three different authors each one allocated with a 500-word limit. This means we can only publish a few poems. Submit up three poems simultaneously. Use normal spacing for your poem as you would wish it to appear. Each poem should be submitted on its own page, but all your submissions should be in one Word document file. At this time, we pay $5.00 to each poet within 60 days after publication. We will pay via PayPal or by other arrangements if necessary. Submit poetry to the poetry editor. Put "POETRY_SUB_" followed by the abbreviated names of the poems in the subject line. Label your Word file like this: 2MPoetry_Your Name.
Thanks so much and many blessings of love and light!

to further clarify:
We claim first world electronic rights (Part of 2M will be in electronic format at the website. This is to TEASE readers. This is why there are "electronic rights." Electronic rights revert back to the writer after 3 months. This is basically the same thing as "FIRST WORLD PRINT RIGHTS" only in ELECTRONIC FORM.)
, first world print rights, (This is for the print magazine, to get their work in the magazine... if accepted. :-) )
first print rights for the production of signed/numbered limited edition chapbooks (author must be willing to sign 100+ chapbooks), (This is for promotional purposes. If there is a "book (magazine" signing at a bookstore... or IF we are able to get a "signing" at a bookstore near the poet, that they'll be willing to show up and promote their own work within the framework of the print magazine. Another words, IF we do a "signing" at a bookstore, we'll have to print an extra 100 copies ABOVE AND BEYOND the normal copies printed. This is the same exact "rights" as getting into the print magazine. It is included to bring attention to possible "magazine signings.")
and non-exclusive anthology rights. > (This discusses the ability of Dark Myth productions to take the "best of the best" of 2M and create an anthology book later down the road. If for any reason a poet would not want this, she/he could simply specify upon having work accepted.
First Rights, First N.A Serial Rights
FNASR, or First North America Serial Rights, are is the most common type of rights publishers in the U.S. request for a first-time sale. It means simply that the publisher has the right to print your story in the agreed-upon publication-magazine or anthology-before you can sell the story again. Once the story has been printed and appears in the publication, then the rights revert back to the author and you once more own the story. You are free to market it again.
One-time Rights
One-time rights are different from first rights as you are granting a particular publisher the one-time use of your story. This means that you are able to sell the story elsewhere and you don not have to wait for it to be published by the first buyer before you find another market. This is convenient for the author and publisher. One-time rights are usually purchased for reprints or anthologies, where most of the stories have already appeared in print. Pubishers usually don't pay as much for one-time rights as first rights.
Electronic and Audio Rights
Many publications now also ask for electronic rights. This refers to the right to publish the work on the Internet or as a downloadable file, or one copied to CD or tape.
I hope to see many of your fine poems soon!
Thanks
