It was chow mein again this morning, alongside a novella by Samuel R. Delany. I‘ve gotta say, I was a touch dismayed when I saw how long this story was since I bounced off two of Delany‘s novels, HARD—but I‘m loving “Empire Star.” It‘s convinced me to give him another try.

Friends, I‘ve finally reached the last issue in my ginormous Lightspeed stack! Only took me six years from that first influx of Kickstarter perk back issues.

Hey, friends! Lightspeed has made all three issues of their People of Colour Destroy! project free to anyone in search of some short SFFH. You should jump on that.
