"Yes, this is the latest issue of Washington's most revered and irreverent literary magazine. For me its highlight is Steven Moore's "Nympholepsy," a despairing meditation on love, literature and unappeasable longing: "Still she haunts me." Surely it belongs in one of those anthologies of the best essays of the year. Certainly no man past 40 will read it without a pang of recognition." --Michael Dirda, Washington Post Book World 12/1/02
Next Reading Period: June-September 2007

Due to unforeseen circumstances we’re afraid that Gargoyle/Paycock Press will be unable to attend the AWP convention in Austin, Texas. We are sharing a table with Gival Press at the BookExpo in Washington, D.C. this May. Hope to see you there.
Gargoyle is taking a brief hiatus. After assembling the nearly 500pp issue #50 in 2005, and the forthcoming 30th anniversary issue #51, due summer 2006, we’ve decided to take a break. Our normal submission reading period is during the summer months. We’re going to close the door on everybody until June 2007. All other planned Paycock Press projects remain ongoing, and should appear as currently scheduled.
