I don't really like endings, but here we are. For now at least, this will be the last issue of the Fortean Bureau.

First, we want to thank our past and present assistant editors, John Borneman, , Hannah Bowen, Celia Marsh, C. M. Morrison, and Tempest. Without their efforts, we never would have lasted so long.

Next, we would like to thank those of you who sent money to help us in the operations of the Fortean Bureau. Also, without you, we would have never made it this far. I won't name any names here, but you know who you are. Thanks again. If you donated recently and want a refund, contact us at the editor's email address.

Also, we have to thank anyone and everyone who has reviewed the Fortean Bureau over the years, or provided a link--or bought any of our merchandise. Without your support, there just wouldn't have been any point to this project. Thanks.

Thanks to you, the writers who have been published and those who have not, in the pages of the Fortean Bureau.

Thanks to the readers who kept our page counts up when we were wondering whether all the work was worth it.

So why are we closing? Time and money, the two main reasons any project like this comes to an end. Perhaps, if in the future we have more of both those things, the Fortean Bureau will return. Things rising from the grave would be very Fortean, after all.

Thanks again to all of you.
