The crabs are moving slowing, but by god they are moving. Issues 1 and 2 are coming together. Emails are being answered! Art is being viewed by many a pronged eye. That is to say, please do email me to follow-up if you've sent me an email and I have yet to reply! 🦀

A Crab Tales update. I've had the worst health this year. Balancing fatigue with a full-time job is no joke. I've had to let Crab Tales and writing projects slide this year whilst I rested. My hope is that I've found enough of a routine to add magazine stuff and regular writing back in. 🦀

Hello, everyone/crab fans/actual crabs/stray humans. I am so sorry for my radio silence on issues 1 and 2. Between poor health and starting a new full-time job, I've had no time nor the spoons to work on either issue. My health has improved, so progress has resumed.

In every person there are two crabs. Please don't disturb them, they are having a nice sit down.

There are DMs now! *clack clack clack clack*

They liked my mention of them in my IG story but did not follow me. OUTRAGE. CRAB INJUSTICE.

Why not submit some Crabstract art? Or maybe you prefer more of an Art Decopod style?

THERE'S A CRAB MUSEUM OMG

Picture me launching issue one with photos of me and said horrifying crab.

The deep temptation to buy all crab related things, even the horrifying 'sexy crab' plush I saw in Penny's last week.

It is lovely to be well enough to work on Crab Tales Issue 1 again. We've reopened our art submissions and will be replying to submissions already sent soon. crabtalesmagazine.com/submissions/

I am still horribly ill. Sorry to everyone that I have not replied to yet. The moment I'm well I'll respond to everyone.

My health has been so poor lately. If I owe you an email and you've not had a reply by Sunday, please send a follow-up.

Facebook and IG are both down. I assume Threads is, too.

Our EIC facilitated an online creative writing workshop this evening to raise funds for MAP. It went very well!
