PsychBytes is Reverting to Re-runs
Tarpley Long, LCSW-C
It is with a heavy heart that as Editor of PsychBytes since 2017, I must announce that we are closing down our 300 word essay publication . PsychBytes is prominently displayed on the WCBP website but has suffered a dearth of submissions since early 2022, and not a single submission in the last year.
The WBCP administration plans to begin recycling the previous PsychBytes on the website. After all, psychoanalytic thinking is not time sensitive! Since its founding a decade ago, we have a treasure trove of about one hundred essays. I want to thank my Committee members: Linda Dickson, Marjorie Swett, Andrew Carroll, Bob Gerlits and Patrick Cody., as well as the original Editor, Linda Kolodner, for their dedication to this quality publication.
