Lockdown on the Moon

Short science fiction story by Denis Mortenson

utopiasciencefiction.substack.com

Man I love seeing @khoreo.bsky.social & @thedeadlands.com on the semiprozine list. My short fiction reading has really dropped off in recent years but I very reliably find the stuff they're doing really exciting.

My story, "Her Hair the Color of a Sun-Red Orange," is in the latest issue of @utopiascifi.bsky.social! www.utopiasciencefiction.com/product-page...

We're really proud to bring you our August issue, featuring prose and poetry with a wide range of themes - plus the winners of this year's art contest! #utopia #sciencefiction www.utopiasciencefiction.com/product-page...

The reviews are in on our latest issue and we're thrilled to say that "Past" by @engel-cox.com and “Pomegranates for Kangaroos" @yoakeim.bsky.social have not only been recommended but received Tangent's second highest rating. tangentonline.com/e-market-qua...

Great news! Have a fantastic interview with Steve Davidson, publisher of @amazingstories.bsky.social, ready for our next issue! - Worth reading for his advice to writers alone but he also provides a valuable insight into SF's longest running magazine. #sciencefiction

We're nearing the mid-point of our annual art contest and we've had some wonderful submissions so far. If you need some inspiration, why not check out some of our previous cover art? www.utopiasciencefiction.com/archive

The book page doesn't seem to mention it, so I'd like to emphasize that this is going to be a queer book too!!! Here is a teaser: wordswithoutborders.org/read/article... "you shake your head woefully in your wake a freshly mown path like a sheaf I bow down before you my scytheman!"

Queer Shores of Ukraine - Words Without Borders

A cycle of Ukrainian poetry on queer love, grief, and the slow passage of time.
