@lilredccc -- is that little red caboose?
These submission openings are often arbitrary, short, and announced with very little notice. I randomly saw the announcement on Twitter and pounced on it. I'm not a fan of Twitter, but it's a good way to find these opportunities (if you're lucky).

Thanks, @anotherearth and @trobinson...I'd only found info on the most recent one and the one from 2021 and didn't know if I was missing something. Just my luck to be a day late and a dollar short!

@lilredcc I think their last open submission period was in 2021...? I randomly saw this one posted on X/Twitter.
