Well, with this issue we come to the close of our first year of publication. We've tried to improve this magazine steadily since its inception, and for the most part, we'd like to think that we've succeeded. Yes, we've had an incident or two we'd like to forget, like a batch of typo-infested copies of the last issue that found their way into the mail and into your hands. Thankfully, we discovered the error very quickly and remedied the situation.

Of course, that's not to say we aren't still experiencing problems. For instance, when this issue arrives in the mail, you'll probably be close to celebrating the holidays. Unfortunately, as I write this, I have no idea whether that will Thanksgiving or Christmas (or, Heaven forbid, New Year's Eve). Delays are always inevitable, no matter how hard you try to avoid them.

But I would like to think that we are doing the best we can do to bring quality fiction to you. In 1991, we brought you over a dozen stories by professional, amateur, and first-time authors. Hopefully, 1992 will be as good.

And while I'm on the subject of the end of the year, let me take a paragraph or so to remind all our readers whose subscriptions started with issue #1 that this is your LAST issue unless you send your renewal. We haven't gotten to the point of inserting those annoying postcards in between the pages, so you'll have to supply your own envelope. (Sorry.) The address hasn't changed: Chris Burke, Driving Tigers, 127 Bay 23 Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214. Subscritpions are still $10. (And a few copies of our earlier issues are still available for $3.00 each.)

We'd like to know what you, our readers, feel was our best. And the best way to do that is to have you vote on it. And this is open to all readers, not just our subscribers. So if you normally pass your copy around amongst your friends, make sure they vote, too. After all, the more responses we have, the more accurate the results will be, but, please, don't vote more than once, and don't send a tallied ballot for several people. We would like everyone to let us know the following:

1. Your three favorite stories (serials count as one story).
2. Your three favorite covers, cartoons, or interior artwork. (Yes, we're aware that most of these pieces did not have titles. Specify the issue and page number.)
3. Should there be more, less, or about the same amount of artwork in future issues?
4. Other than the fiction and artwork, are there any other features you would like to see included in future issues? (Please, be specific).

Webmaster's Note: While I appreciate any feedback you may have, please remember that this was printed five years ago. The contest is over. Thank you.
