This is when I start thinking to myself two words. Submission limit. I dont see why more lit mags do this, especially if they get overwhelmed and there's always the 'Life has decided to be RUDE' . Shit happens, life happens, only take the number of subs you can handle. (Just my two cents as I'm not an editor and hats off to all lit mag editors who can handle this and have a life outside of this)
