Pre-order Manic Musings of a Maniacal Mind

Standard

On July 12th, we will be releasing Manic Musings of a Maniacal Mind: The Collected Short Fiction of J Alan Erwine, but you can pre-order your Kindle edition today!

For more than two decades, editors have been publishing the works of J Alan Erwine, exposing you, the reader, to the dark recesses of the author’s mind. Now, all of those stories have been combined together into one massive tome.
Get a glimpse into Erwine’s grim view of the future, and explore the universe from his slightly off-kilter point of view.
Visit the planets, the stars, the scary places in the human mind, but make sure you’re wearing a seatbelt, because you never know where Erwine might take you next…

Two stories from Mike Morgan set on Titanville, a space station orbiting Titan.
THE TULKU OF TITAN: The Dalai Lama has passed away, but the monks who are to search for his new incarnation are not prepared for the fact that he has gone into space…nor are they prepared for what they find once they reach Titan.
THE TERROR OF TITAN: A murder has been committed, and a husband and wife are each quick to admit to having committed it, but have they? It’s up to Marshal Augusta Thrum to discover the truth.

For those of you submitting to The Fifth Di…

Standard

Over the last few months, we’ve been sending out a very large number of rejections on stories that have been submitted to The Fifth Di…, even to authors who, in the past, were almost guaranteed placement because of their talent. We thought we should explain that the main reason for this is because since we’ve added the print version of the zine, the quantity, and the quality of submissions has gone up dramatically, requiring us to be even pickier about what we select. Stories that would have easily made it into the zine when it was just an e-zine, now find it difficult to get into the zine. We suppose that this is a good thing because it means the quality of the zine is improving, but we hate having to reject stories. We’ve even expanded the zine to six stories per issue in an effort to publish all of these great stories, but still some have to be passed on, and we deeply regret this.

Please don’t be discouraged by rejections from us (or other zines.) Keep submitting and we’ll keep publishing the best that we can find.
