Rabbit, rabbit. The month is October, so I am now reading submissions for
Strange Horizons. Send me all your autumnal things! And your winter-turning poems, too; I'm on active duty through the month of November, which is the end of our reading year. We will be closing to submissions again this December and reopening in January 2014, after which we plan to stay open the full year.
In the meantime, please check out this excellent, spiky, shifting
poem and
interview with
shweta_narayan, featured poet of this week's issue of
Indian speculative fiction. Our fund drive is
still running, having just paid off
Bryan Thao Worra's "
Full Metal Hanuman" and a
poetry podcast roundtable, but there's still an interview, fiction, and stretch incentives to go.
io9 thought we were September's worthiest cause, but October's a good month to be generous too, right? A soul, a soul, a soul cake . . .
This is also the month of my birthday, moving house with
derspatchel, and performing again as part of
Music to Cure MS. And there is a
Humphrey Bogart retrospective starting on Friday at the Brattle. Hey, autumn.
