The Sofanauts and Lightspeed

5 days ago by mentatjack

The Sofanauts has quickly become my favorite podcast. I loved hearing Paul Di Filippo and Peter Watts discuss the trials and tribulations of surviving as a writer. They got me thinking about how I might put myself on the trajectory to write for video games. Hearing Jeff VanderMeer, Jeremy Tolbert, S ...

Strange Visitors And Broken Hearts Will Restore Your Faith In Short Fiction

So when reading the anthology Eclipse Three, you may be startled at the unexpected sensation of enjoyment. Oh, and here’s a spoiler warning, alth ...

Eclipse Three

14 days ago by mattbruensteiner

I was able to “sneak” in to the World Fantasy Convention here in San Jose last week in the guise of press. It was great fun to meet some local authors, and I got a post for Metblogs out of it.

An Informative Question

45 days ago by Timmi Duchamp

I see that over at the Sci-fi Wire, Paul Di Filippo is asking Why does the jury that awards the Nobel Prize for Literature hate us? By "us," I mean, of course, hardcore writers and partisans of fantastika, people unafraid and unashamed to boldly identify themselves primarily with the genres of scien ...

‘Pinocchia’ by Paul Di Filippo

70 days ago by Martin

Now, to awaken her, he had only to speak her name, a name he had chosen and suitably altered in memory of a fairytale he had enjoyed as a child, a fairytale whose creator-figure harmonized vaguely with Geppi’s own name and vocation. How convenient. This is, obviously, a fairytale re-telling where – ...

Waiter, there's white copy paper in my lettuce

99 days ago by shweta_narayan

But really, yay! I was worried, after the Eclipse 1 cover with no women named on it and the gender imbalance of the Eclipse 2 TOC, but The Eclipse 3 cover and TOC look really damn good to me. Huge kudos to Jonathan Strahan for listening to people last year. (Via 14theditch (Jeff Ford), who has a swo ...

When even SF Murphy recognises there is a problem, just how far from the pack have you strayed?
