Space Squid Magazine: Childish, But Not For Children...


Space Squid Magazine has published stories by Bruce Sterling (father of cyberpunk), Chris Roberson (Clockwork Strorybook), Jay Lake (John W. Campbell Award winner), Jennifer Pelland (Nebula nominee)...and me?

Guess so. Yeah, they did. For some reason.

I won't ask why they've allowed a short story of mine, a Monster Morality Tale, to ooze its way across the pages of their 9th issue, but I can only laugh that a mag that's published Bruce Sterling has now published someone as unworthy as myself. Cue 'Big Stupid, Cheese-Eating Grin'.

The print version of Space Squid #9 is long gone, but the tentacled editors have generously posted the entire issue online as a FREE downloadable PDF. Check it out and get ready for a bizarre journey into the weirder dimension of sci-fi. Remember, Space Squid is childish but not for children.

Above is the cover for issue 9 (art/design by David Chang).
