It’s been almost three years since Paper Tape began publishing. With regret I announce that as of today, Paper Tape submissions will be closed indefinitely. In many ways, I believe that the past few months have been some of our best, but it’s time for us to move on to other things.

From the beginning, I’ve been amazed by the support for this publication. I’m proud of what we built here, and I plan to keep this site haunting the Internet as long as possible.

It’s been an incredible journey that wouldn’t have been possible without the artists and writers who trusted us with their work, especially Sid, Matt, Elizabeth, and Maya. Thanks to Leander, Brandon, Tom, Ian, Kristi, Crista, Nate, Hannah, and Keagan for believing in Paper Tape when it was no more than a crazy scheme and helping to launch this venture. Editors Jessica and Harmony, I owe you an incredible debt for all of your help and support and sticking with it to the end.

To all of you reading this, may your reel of the fantastic never run out.
