It just feels right. And for that, BULL owes a great big thanks to\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/cargocollective.com\/bradyjackson\">Brady Jackson<\/a>\u00a0for his\u00a0stellar design work, which you&#8217;ll continue to see more of in the coming weeks, and without which I could never have built this thing.<\/p>\n<p>Also instrumental was a new corp of editorial assistants: McKenzie Hightower, Elise Gruneisen, and Charles Labuz, whose steadfast cut-and-pasting helped us make the transition.<\/p>\n<p>And let&#8217;s not forget\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bullmensfiction.com\/about\">the rest of our staff<\/a>, whom this site rebuild is really for. Because if you think it looks nice on the outside, it runs like a top now behind the scenes. This was the goal: to eliminate needless button-pushing so we can focus on what we do best\u2014reading submissions, working with writers, and presenting quality work to our growing readership.<\/p>\n<p>And speaking of, here&#8217;s a huge thanks to everyone who subscribed in the interim. In addition to the goodness you no doubt found in the print issue, here&#8217;s what&#8217;s new online:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a title=\"BULLshop\" href=\"http:\/\/bullmensfiction.com\/shop\/\">The BULLshop<\/a>\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0The biggest and newest by far.
