Despite a 10k and falling subscriber base, once that particular issue has come and gone, the story is lost somewhere on paper )or buried behind a paywall for the electronic copy), and anyone who missed the issue is basically out of luck. Or maybe do both. I guess it depends on the restrictions placed on you when/if they accept your work for publishing. Shocking though the thought is to me, there is still a significant portion of old school collectors who haven't found the Internet. I'm not anti-print, I just think it is a fast way for a story to disappear after the monthly issue has passed.
