Dear Visitors and Contributors to BP: Here's what other writers have to say about the SF anthology in which your loyal editor has recently been published.

"Raygun Chronicles is an impressive anthology with an impressive list of contributors, a real showcase of the color and scope of what science fiction can be."—Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling author of The Saga of Seven Suns

"RAYGUN CHRONICLES breathes supercharged life into the space opera genre with exciting and inventive new tales by a superb line-up of writers. This is why science fiction will live forever!” –Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of EXTINCTION MACHINE, FIRE & ASH and PATIENT ZERO.

Due to space considerations, we are now keeping only the last ten issues archived. If you need to check on anything before that, contact us by email and we can pull the story or poem for you.
 
BLACK PETALS NEEDS ARTWORK!!!
     Here's the deal: We've associated ourselves with a number of artists over the years and many have moved on to bigger and better things, (like making money for their work) and we don't blame them...what we are needing is new blood to help make Black Petals as good online as it was in print. Go to the guidelines page to read more...
 

     And, last but not least, there is still a link to our sister 'zine, Yellow Mama.
