Publisher Jason Sizemore has announced that, "effective immediately", Apex Magazine is "going on hiatus. We've reached a point where myself and the other people involved with Apex Publications felt it best that we put our focus and energies into the side of the business that makes the money: the books."
Sizemore doesn't think this is a final state, however: "I believe it is only temporary. For now, the hiatus will definitely last at least three months. It might go on six months, a year, but when the resources are there to bring it back, it will be brought back.
"The May issue of Apex Magazine will be published on May 4th, per the norm.
"The small handful of digital subscribers will be refunded for the remainder of their subscription. There will be no 'ebook' version of the magazine for May."
