"Following the announcement in December that Karen Meisner was leaving the 
fiction department at Strange Horizons, fiction editor Susan Marie Groppi, who 
has held that post for more than a decade, has announced that she will be 
stepping down, although retaining an advisory role. The magazine is currently 
looking for a new fiction editor, and will be temporarily closed to 
submissions."

"Changes for the Fiction Department 
Posted by Susan Marie Groppi 

We're looking to bring new fiction editors into the Strange Horizons team. This 
might not be much of a surprise, after our announcement in December that Karen 
Meisner was leaving the fiction department. What might be a surprise, though, 
is that we're not just looking for someone to fill Karen's old spot.

I'm also leaving the Strange Horizons fiction department. This decision has 
been a long time coming, and I've been hesitating over it for months. I've been 
a fiction editor here for over a decade, and it's been a really important part 
of my life. Stepping down from the fiction department is the right decision for 
me, though, and now is the right time. 

I'm not going away entirely -- I'll be staying around in an advisory role for 
the magazine, and I'll be actively involved in the process of selecting new 
fiction editors. Our goal is to put together a strong and fabulous editorial 
team that will continue to publish groundbreaking fiction from all over the 
speculative fiction spectrum -- and represent all of the voices in our 
community. We've already started speaking to a few promising candidates, but 
we're interested in hearing from applicants who we might not have already 
considered, so we invite anyone who's interested in what we're doing at Strange 
Horizons to consider applying for a position as a fiction editor."
