Saturday morning was Altered Fluid’s fifth outing on the Saturday morning radio show Hour of the Wolf.  While the process of critiquing a story is fairly rote for us anymore, doing it live on the radio does provide quite a thrill.  This time through we went at Rajan’s story “School Bus” and were as gentle with it and him as we thought necessary.

For those of you who didn’t feel like getting up at 5 a.m. to listen live, you can download an audio file of the broadcast from the Hour of the Wolf website, June 27th broadcast.

Senses Five Press has posted my interview with Paul Tremblay, from the new issue of Sybil’s Garage, on their website. Check it out here.

Sybil’s Garage #6 has hit the streets.  A lot of great ficti0n in this issue, along with my interview with author extrodinaire Paul Tremblay.

Fellow Altered Fluidian Kris Dikeman has a story up for the storySouth Million Writers Award.  Her story, “Nine Sundays in a Row” was published online by Strange Horizons.  It’s honestly one of my favorite stories from the past two years from any market and any author.  Truly a wonderful bit of storytelling.

Check out the story at Strange Horizons, and vote.
