| Editors Foreword |

Q. When is an editorial not an editorial?
A. When it isn't written by the editor!
What I really mean is, when there isn't just one editor!
The focus of Furthertxt has always been to find as many ways
of providing varied texts and textual interaction as possible
- one answer is to offer the site to guest editors, in turn
widening the styles and methods of editing, the stable of
featured writers and the opportunities to get involved. I
will still be managing the site, and editing when I can, but
I will also be planning exciting new projects that Furthertxt
will unveil over the next year, to complement its programme
of guest editors, and to help it evolve from a static magazine
to a more dynamic entity
