SAM'S DOT PUBLISHING PRESENTS:
SPACEPORTS & SPIDERSILK
Spring has sprung here on our Space Station, with a bit of help from the magical spiders who festoon the place with their webs. With the season, and its welcome waves of warmth and greenery, have come a hoard of aliens, misguided creatures, pirates, and nameless, much dreaded Things.
While the crew and I spend our time sweeping the station’s corners for malevolent beings, I hope you readers can relax and enjoy stories by Jenny Moore, Terrie Leigh Relf, M. Sullivan, M.J. Ware, Dave Suggs, and Phil Berger, as well as poems by Pat Tompkins, Bryland Sutton, Brian Rosenberger, Mike Berger, Aurelio Rico Lopez III, B.J. Lee, and Rick O’Donnell. There is even a scientifically magical article by Mark Glosser, that may have you wondering where the line between magic and science can really be drawn.
And if while you are reading you notice something new, something different, some creature lurking on the outskirts of the stories, or slinking inwards from one of our more... unusual, unpleasant worlds, well, just smack it sharply on the nose with a rolled up newspaper, and tell it to wait for September.
Because, after all, September is, or will be, an entirely different issue.
