    About The Deadlands

    The Deadlands is a magazine that publishes short stories, poems, and essays about the other realms, of the ends we face here, and the beginnings we find elsewhere. It is an adventure into the unknown, to meet those who live there still, even though they may be dead. Death is a journey we all will take, but we’d like to peek at the map before we go.

    A new issues arrives every month on the 19th.

    More information about The Deadlands can be found on their website, The Deadlands

    This issue is the hot summer wind that dries your tears. We wait in the shade of the red rock, hoping there is still water in the soil. We fear to dig, but we must, because there are sprouts to be rescued. This issue contains stories about the bonds of family (for both good and ill), stories about the changes that come over us as the seasons shift, and stories about how we decide to linger.

    Here are stories from Sarina Dorie, Elad Haber, Frances Lu-Pai Ippolito, H. L. Fullerton, Warren Benedetto, Jennifer Worrell, K. Wallace King, Michelle Knudsen, Ingrid Garcia, and Matthew Cheney.

    Fantasy Magazine, Issue 92 (June 2023)

    Tags:

    FANTASY MAGAZINE is a digital magazine focusing exclusively on the fantasy genre. In its pages, you will find all types of fantasy-dark fantasy, contemporary urban tales, surrealism, magical realism, science fantasy, high fantasy, folktales, and anything and everything in between. FANTASY is entertainment for the intelligent genre reader-we publish stories of the fantastic that make us think, and tell us what it is to be human.

    Welcome to Issue #92 of FANTASY! This month, we have original short fiction from Melissa A Watkins (“Eat”) and Daniel Ausema (“What Passes for Eyes in Dreams and Death”). Plus, we have original flash fiction from Bidisha Banerjee (“Schrodinger’s Kitten Falls in Love”) and Kim. M. Munsamy (“Things Handed Down”), along with original poetry by Tahnia Barrie (“Holy Dyad, Till Sunup”) and Eleanna Castroianni (“Foldable Daughters”). Our nonfiction this month includes “Worldbuilding While Black” by Leslye Penelope, along with our usual array of author spotlights.

    Lightspeed Magazine, Issue 157 (June 2023)

    Tags:

    LIGHTSPEED is a digital science fiction and fantasy magazine. In its pages, you will find science fiction: from near-future, sociological soft SF, to far-future, star-spanning hard SF-and fantasy: from epic fantasy, sword-and-sorcery, and contemporary urban tales, to magical realism, science-fantasy, and folktales.

    Welcome to issue 157 of LIGHTSPEED! While we at LIGHTSPEED are totally committed to careful driving and pedestrian safety, you might not know it from two of our science fiction titles! “Spaceship Joyride,” a new short story by Dominique Dickey about two teens “borrowing” a spaceship, is just as much fun as the title warns you it will be. But Elad Haber’s flash piece, “Jaywalk the Stars,” is packed with desperate consequences. Our other science fiction short, “Queen of the Andes” by Ruth Joffre, also explores the painful consequences of space travel-in contrast to the terrible consequences of staying on our own climate-ravaged planet. We also have a new flash piece from Rich Larson: “Always Personal.” Sarah Grey brings us a charming fantasy short, “And All the Fields Below,” that will give your heartstrings an enormous yank. Deborah L. Davitt takes a more classical approach in her poignant story “Philoctetes in Kabul”-where by “classical,” we’re talking about ancient Greece. We also have two flash stories: “The Bone-Gatherer’s Lament” from Wendy Nikel and “Bestiary viventem” from Kyle E Miller. In nonfiction, our spotlight editor, Laurel Amberdine, sits down with our short fiction authors to bring you more insight on their work. The book review team offers an assortment of delightful reads, and of course, our ebook readers also enjoy two book excerpts.
