AfroSF Special and February ebook!
Added 2016-02-29 22:45:30 +0000 UTCIf I've counted correctly, this is the first five-Monday February since 1988; which is significant for no particular reason, but is a nice piece of trivia.
We're not letting the occasion go to waste, at any rate: this week's issue is a small AfroSF special—not one that you should see as any kind of definitive statement, more a moment of recognition for a remarkable period of creativity and recognition for African and African-diaspora SF writers. Chinelo Onwualu, co-founder of Omenana, digs into some of the nuances of the moment in her column, and has picked our story for the week, by Ekari Mbvundula; we also have a poem by Sofia Samatar, and reviews of two recent collections and a novella. With any luck it's a part of the SF conversation we can host and contribute to further in the future.
Since it's the last Monday of the month, it's also an ebook week, and you'll find .epub, .mobi and .pdf compilations of all of this month's material attached to this post. I feel like it has been, if I say so myself, a decent month; hope you agree and thanks, as ever, for your support here.
And with that, onwards to March!
