Ryecorn digital publishing was set up to provide a publishing platform for the Kishboo e-Magazine and novellas developed under the ryecorn brand. This provides a professional feel to the Kishboo eMag with all the benefits of umbrella branding.
In October 2014, we launched Kishboo, a new non- profit, non- subscription fiction e-magazine, published four times a year, in two e-formats:
Issues 1# to 3# were also published as an application
for Android phone and tablets. However, when we produced issue 4# (Autumn),
we decided to create a dynamic web page using bootstrap and JavaScript,
that would be mobile friendly. This allowed us to drop the Android app
version and at the same time, this increased our ranking with Google.
Kishboo holds an ongoing short story competition - it's 2,000 words
max and we hold an open genre.
It costs £3 to enter each story.
The best fifteen stories will be selected for e-publication in the magazine.
The editor considers stories three times for e-publication.
An open vote picks the winner and runner- up place in each issue.
There's a first prize of £50 and a runner- up prize of £25
up for grabs. There is also an Ed's choice story that wins £15.
Readers vote by clicking on the FB 'like' button or via email.
We do not receive any arts based or business funding for Kishboo. The
competition entry fees and kindle e-mag sales fund our cash prizes,
and the advertising on our site covers the cost of the Kishboo website.
