The tenth issue of Chris Fletcher’s ’zine M-Brane SF is due for release on 1 November 2009. As you can see in the image above, my long story “Jannicke’s Cat” gets the cover. If you haven’t subscribed yet, what are you waiting for? $12.00 for twelve monthly issues of sci-fi goodness delivered direct to your computer—do yourself a cheap favor.

For those who haven’t been following along, “Jannicke’s Cat” is the first piece of my science-fiction work in (temporarily, unexpectedly stalled) progress A Boy’s History of the World to reach the public. A self-contained story, it takes place some centuries before the main narrative thread(s) of the project as a whole and within living memory of the slow catastrophe that shapes human life and culture on the planet Rahab.
