Hello everyone. I would love to say this has been a great month, but it has been crap for several of us. I will try to keep this upbeat, but when I say it has been a heartbreaking month, it's no joke. Still on a serious note, my deepest condolences go out to two of our The World of Myth family, as each has lost someone very dear to them. March can move on now. So, now that I have had my melancholy moment, let's see what this issue has in store for us! Again it is packed with all sorts of goodies!! First off, congratulations to Molly E. Hamilton for being Featured Article again this month! I know you are all going to enjoy how the final part of Ruanna's Dream plays out! Also to Ed Bickford for his piece Dancing in the Rain for being our cover art! Copper Rose delivers part 3 to Feeding the Queen of the Underworld and addresses all those questions we were asking at the end of part 2! You are in for a treat with Steve Carr's latest Princess Aife and Her Dragon, truly fantasy at it's finest form. Mehreen Ahmed pulls us in with another amazing tale called The Scent of Goodness, and Mark Kodama takes us on an interesting Greek adventure in The Three Trials of Meleager. Rounding out the Fantasy section is my next instalment in The Chosen Series (yes it finally has a name!) titled, No Going Back. Action and Suspense is called to the Scene of a Murder presented to us by Tom Fowler, then we are Flying Blind to China from Walter Giersbach, I'm not entirely sure I want to be on that flight but it was a hell of a ride reading it! Then David K Montoya takes us on an interesting and eye opening journey in his next instalment of Through the Eyes of Madness. Pay attention to the clues! Horror is dominated by Mr. Montoya this month with his story Call of the Blackbird. I have to say, after reading this, the Ravens in my maple tree became a lot more ominous! Scif-fi belong totally to Walter E. Esselman with part 2 of Liberty which first appear in our December issue. After reading part 1 I was thrilled to see this come across my desk! Humor gives us a good laugh with newcomer JayM and The Great Health Food Debate, and Bruce Rowe treats us to a little bit of dark humor with Grave Migration. Poetry is by far our largest selection this month, with a poem entitled Grandma from Patricia McNelly, Shopping City from Michael A Arnold, Schadenfreude by JayM, Gilded Cage by yours truly, Please Please by Christopher Bice, Kevin Magnus gives us My Hero and Randolph R. Lofgren gives us Turning of Time. The Art Gallery gives us some really beautiful pieces to feast our eyes on. Boryana Ananieva presents us with The Retro Future, Molly E. Hamilton shows another side to her artistic side with Wishing Moon, and newcomer Madison Hamilton gives us a little Serenity. Kristofor Harris give us his next instalment Mikoto and that rounds out our gallery. Jason Bechard brings us his review of the movie 31, and I have now added yet another to my watch list. Pryce-less reviews the video game Devil May Cry V. Newcomer Katie Bardy gives us her take on the book Inkheart and David K Montoya throws a little conspiracy theory into the mix with the second part of his Banksy art interview. As always the ever eerie Myth Master brings us another fun filled interview, this time with Matt Wall, in a nice clean episode that even the kiddies can listen too. Last but definitely not least, our fearless leader David K Montoya gives us his commentary. Don't forget that as of today, our Open Contract Contest is now on! Check out the website and dazzle us! Sit back, enjoy all our contributor's have to offer, vote, comment and we will see you all next month!
