Non-Fiction

Very cool SF webzine

Thu Nov 19, 2009, 3:43 PM
Crossed Genres is a monthly sci-fi and fantasy zine that I stumbled across by accident a few months ago. They publish in print, pdf, and prc formats, and they sell the issues for very good prices ($9.99 is a year's subscription, for instance). Every issue combines science fiction and fantasy with some other genre—horror, romance, crime, LGBT, and so on. It's like crossover fic, but different! Someday I'd like to submit to them, because the combination idea sounds fun and right up my alley.

Unfortunately, they're kind of broke. The editors are sinking way more money into the zine than they're getting back, and if things don't change, they're going to fold. :( So they're asking for people to pimp them, buy issues, subscribe, whatever. But especially pimp, because they're sure that somebody on the internet will know somebody famous who'll pimp them to the world. Hey, it could happen, right? :love:

Consider this my pimpage. Anyone else feel like doing so? Or subscribing to them, for that matter? :poke: :innocent:

I'm first and foremost a geek (also a nerd, also a dork). My tastes in fandoms include space and time travel, history, superpowers/magic, aliens, the paranormal, and quirkiness, which means that I enjoy a range of things from Doctor Who to Firefly to Danny Phantom to CSI to Supernatural. I'm a sucker for crossovers, revelations, outsider POV, and crackfic. I've drifted out of writing fic, but I still read a lot of it.

In reality, I'm a twenty-something working in a bookstore and editing/rewriting a novel which I'm hoping to have done by the end of the year. I probably won't, though. ^^; I read a lot, eat too much chocolate, listen to classic rock, jazz, and classical music, and enjoy doing my own thing.

I'm not a fan of being bossed around, talked down to, shoved into social situations, or trash-talked. That probably shouldn't surprise anyone. ;)
