Farewell to The Puritan

The Puritan Editors Spencer Gordon and Tyler Willis have sent notice that as of May 1, 2009, “The Puritan is officially out of commission.” Citing “including insurmountable financial debt, a dramatic change in location, and the current abysmal economy,” the magazine will be on “permanent hiatus.” As with so many mags, that pretty much means done unless a lot of money were to fall into their laps. Our thanks to The Puritan for their work in bringing new voices onto the lit scene for so many years.
