PANK 4 is mostly full. We are primarily reading for the web right now. If we accept for print, it will be for PANK 5, which will be released in the second half of 2010 (pending funding) or in January 2011 if our status quo does not change.

McSweeney’s is looking for new columnists.

The June issue of Word Riot is up.
