Galaxy's Edge

Living Rooms! Good choice! One of the most original fantasies I have read in years.

"Living Rooms" was particularly good.

Agreed. And I thought she was working on a novel length story around that premise? Though I could be wrong, it was two years ago we chatted about writing at Worldcon. Many times I have slept since then.

Latest issue is up:

Ahh a reprint of 'All You Zombies" just in time to go with the film adaptation.

Mike and Shahid (the publisher) worked hard to make that deal come together. They even have a still from the film incorporated into the cover. Nice work!

Might I add that - despite having a small budget - it is a top-notch adaptation of the short story. I was very impressed.

You can't tell it from just a list of the contents, but the Niven is a brand-new Draco Tavern
story, and the Heinlein has been seen only by people who shelled out $1,500 for the limited
(to 2,000 copies) Virginia Set.

According to an announcement by Galaxy's Edge's publisher, Mike has been nominated for a Hugo for best editor. By my count, that makes 37 nominations. I might add that second place is far behind.

In a previous edition of Galaxy's Edge, Joy Ward interviews the directors of "Predestination," a movie adaptation of Heinlein's "All You Zombies," which is also reprinted in Galaxy's Edge. Just bought and watched a DVD of "Predestination," starring Ethan Hawk. The directors say, "There's never been a time travel story like this one and never will be." Hard to argue with that.

Reboots (Part 2) – Mercedes Lackey & Cody Martin

No editorial by Mike Resnick in the current issue. I can't get enough of Mike's editorials and columns. Editorials/columns by other people, in any genre and any context, put me to sleep. Mike's are just mesmerizing. If he ever tries to stop, the fans will handcuff him to a chair at every convention til he supplies their monthly allotment.

I have an editorial. Every issue (except the last one) it appears as "The Editor's Word". Honest.

-- Mike

Found it. Stand corrected. Don't know how I missed it the first time.

Here's the Table of Contents for Galaxy's Edge #17, which goes live on November 1:

The Editor’s Word, by Mike Resnick
From the Moment I Laid Eggs in You, by Josh Vogt
Kill Me, by Sabina Theo

Reboots (Part 4), by Mercedes Lackey and Cody Martin

For those of you who like sci fi humor, check out "From the Moment I Laid Eggs in You." At first, it was a bit silly, so I was tempted to stop reading. But as the story progressed, it developed genius upon genius. Sci fi humor stories are a rare species and good ones are even rarer. So this is a real treat.

"From the Moment I Laid Eggs in You" is only 700 words. I've done a lot of flash pieces, but no comedies. Is a flash sci fi humor story easier to write than a longer one?

Hi Mike,

Unrelated note, but I sent you a story on the 23rd of November and just realized I never got a confirmation e-mail from you. Did I fall afoul of your spam filter again?

Stewart, I've got it. Just back from the Sail to Success Cruise, so I'm a bit behind. I'll get back
to you within the next 10 days.

Mike
