Ray Gun Revival ezine is on the move, and just in case their main site at http://raygunrevival.com goes dark, here is where to find them in the meantime - this from Johne Cook:

Where will we find the issues? For now, all issues are up at Scribd, and that will be the default location. I'd also like to host all the issues elsewhere, and I may put them up on my own server.
Where will we find RGR? We're going to be all over the place. While our permanent home in exile is still be wrangled, you can find us in these other places:

News for September 13th 2010

Ellen Maze says: As some of you know, I wrote a 4-part Christian vampire series from 2004 to 2008, and submitted it a half a dozen times over the years. I got plenty of rejections, but in 2009, some really good nibbles on it; requests to see more, to see a book proposal, etc. Now, after twenty edits and a few major character overhauls, "THE JUDGING The Corescu Chronicles Book One" found a taker in TreasureLine Books. Since this is a small house that uses POD technology, we should be seeing this book on the shelf before the end of the year. God bless you all and let's keep writing what the Lord puts in our hearts!

You can also read a fascinating (funny!) interview and review with Ellen's characters at the New Authors Fellowship, thanks to Diane Graham:
