Black Cat Mystery Magazine - Editor Changes

It looks like Black Cat Mystery Magazine will have a new co-editor.  I received this announcement from Michael Bracken.  And I asked, but there's no news as to when submissions will open again.

Big news from Malice Domestic! A few months ago, Carla Coupe announced that she was stepping away from the co-editorship of @wildsidepress Black Cat Mystery Magazine. Today, I’m pleased to reveal that I am the new co-editor. Carla will be guiding me through the transition, and the next few issues will include stories she and John Betancourt already have on hand. Wildside Press has published several of my books, and I’ve had a story in every issue of BCMM, so I have a long and positive relationship with Wildside. I look forward to what’s to come, and I’ll share details when I have them.
