Our inaugural \u00a0issue \u00a0of the Short Story section\u00a0of EgoPHobia (#22) was followed by a wave of submissions, and\u00a0 we had a hard time to review and\u00a0 take under\u00a0 consideration all of them. This was the reason why, regarding our decision to approve their stories, with few exceptions, many writers did not receive yet a definitive response from us.\u00a0 While the stories written in English found an easier way to the editing table of Mr. Robert Fenhagen, the stories written in Romanian are going through translation, a time consuming process. Then, it is Mr. Fenhagen\u2019s magic approach to editing, which resembles in many ways the editing used in the adaptations of literary works in movie making. This happens not only for the fact that a story written in Romanian is impossible to translate mot-a-mot in English, but also for the fact that, the imagery produced in two different cultures\u00a0 may \u00a0flow ideatically in two different directions. \u00a0I discussed at length with Mr. \u00a0Fenhagen\u00a0 on the subject and, even though, the editing and translations demand a more substantial\u00a0 effort \u00a0on our part, we decided to do what it is in the best interest of the literary work\u00a0 respecting \u00a0the \u00a0specificity of the short story genre, instead of \u00a0a flat approve \/reject\u00a0 approach.<\/p>\n

From anonymous, to emerging or accomplished writers, from simple to \u00a0highly complex stories, our Short Story section will publish with every issue\u00a0 materials which hopefully will be recognized \u00a0in time as a standard of excellence both \u00a0by the Romanian and the English speaking readers.<\/p>\n

The writers interested to publish their stories, are invited to read our \u201cCall to Submissions\u201d<\/a> page.<\/p>\n
