Subject: Press Release: New Issue of Black Gay Magazine


NEW ISSUE OF BLACK GAY MAGAZINE HITS THE STANDS
 
The fifth issue of Blackfire, the adult entertainment magazine for black men
in the life, has just come off the press!
 
Blackfire publishes erotic images, experiences and fantasies of black men
who are "in the life," an expression that has been used to describe black
gay and bisexual men since the Harlem Renaissance. This new issue of
Blackfire features the fiction, non-fiction, poetry and photography that men
all over the country are waiting to read.
 
Since black lesbian and gay literature has never been more popular, we're
sure that you will want to bring word of Blackfire to your readers. In
addition, if one of the Blackfire contributors is a local resident, you
might consider running a feature on that person.
 
Blackfire accepts ongoing submissions of fiction, non-fiction, artwork and
photography. More information on submission procedures is available by
calling for writing for the Blackfire Guidelines for Submission.
 
In publication since 1992, Blackfire is the only explicit black gay magazine
that is published by a black gay company. It remains the classiest of the
explicit black gay titles with content that is challenging and production
values that are high.
 
Blackfire is a publication of the BLK Publishing Company, Box 83912, Los
Angeles, CA 90083-0912. Telephone: 310-410-0808. Fax: 310-410-9250. E-mail:
