About

We worry about fiction. Where are the new ideas? Where’s the weird shit? What’s the future going to look like, and why will it matter? Please, surprise us. Shock us out of our ennui, and, like the iconic hooker with a heart of gold, or the free spirit w/terminal illness, help make our lives worth living again. We are a speculative fiction magazine, and while your submission should have speculative aspects we’re not looking for any particular genre — substance and execution are more important than subject matter.
