Just a brief note to point out that the brand new speculative fiction magazine Specutopia has launched, edited by Dale Wise. They publish every 2 months in various and sundry electronic formats, for $3.49 you’ll get 7 short stories, including my story “Never Idle” about a man who can talk to cars and the woman he stops to help on the side of the road when she’s having car trouble.
If you want a sample of the kinds of stories are in the issue, you can read Greg Mellor’s “Hollow Spaces” for free on their website. If you check back around August 1st, James Beamon’s “Death of the World’s Greatest Detective” will be available to read for free.
Enjoy! And if you do buy a copy, feel free to make a comment here about my story or the issue in general!
Hi, found you through a comment on Mike Resnick’s blog. I love your site, think I’ll browse around a bit. Congrats on getting your story in Specutopia! Sounds like a zine I’d like and if I get it, I’ll be sure to leave you a comment.
Hi Madison!
Thanks for stopping by. I thought your name looked familiar, must be from reading comments on Mike’s post.
Speaking of Mike… since you already follow him, you might be interested to see our interview of him just last month:
