There are just five hours left to preorder RJ Astruc’s A Festival of Skeletons: If you have no interest at all in reading a fabulous, well thought-out, engaging story, stay away from RJ Astruc’s writing – you’ll get sucked in and read it anyway. The moment I started reading, she dragged me along for an […]

Just one week left… …to preorder RJ Astruc’s novel A Festival of Skeletons! “I’m not only reserving bookshelf space for the printed edition of A Festival of Skeletons, I’ll be reserving reading and re-reading time for it, too. Be careful of this one, readers; you won’t want to put it down, either!” ~Jean Johnson, New […]

This is the replacement shipment that Createspace sent after USPS lost/destroyed the first shipment. They arrived safely, in great shape and super-fast. Kudos to Createspace for their handling of the situation! We’ll be […]

It’s been 11 months since Crossed Genres released our LGBTQ issue, and so we’re sad to say that October is the last month it will be around. The LGBTQ has been (so far) our most successful issue and (we believe) did a lot to bring attention to LGBTQ characters in SFF. We’re very sorry to […]

We’re approaching the end of September, and depending on how those last few days go we have a reasonable chance of receiving more submissions to our Characters of Color issue than we did last year, for our double-sized LGBTQ issue. Of course we’ve had an entire year more to build readership and be heard of […]

It’s very hard to struggle back into a rhythm of work after being flung out of it for so long. To anyone who says 5 days isn’t a long time, I say: clearly you have never truly been in this kind of rhythm. But we are clawing our way back to production. We got back […]
