About

The magic words are 'speculative fiction'. To us, this means science fiction, fantasy, and horror. Combinations of these are acceptable, and if done with adequate style and craft, can make for a truly great story. Make it bright red, darkly mysterious, or outrageously funny, but by all means make it fresh. Making it political? Don't make it PC. Make it adult if the story needs to be, but don't make it gratuitous. Warning: bodice ripper stories may be returned to the submitter along with an invoice for editorial pain and suffering. Now if it's an alien bodice, being ripped in a fresh and excitingly new way, well, that may be another story ... Making it scary? Hint: gore NOT EQUAL TO scary. Gore has its place. It needs to belong in the story to be there. Consider the phrase 'indigenous human technology' as a nonsense reference point: what makes for a new species might well make for wonderful reading.
