Hoping we’ll have the ARCs by Readercon, but here is a sneak peek at the finished cover for Realms 2:

I’ll have this up for preorder sometime in the next day or so.
Summer in Paris, Light from the Sky by Ken Scholes was published in Clarkesworld back in November 2007. In my opinion, this is one of the best stories we’ve ever published. It’s currently on the preliminary Nebula ballot and later this year, it will be included in Realms: The Second Year of Clarkesworld Magazine (available for preorder soon). Why the recap? Well, I’m pleased to say that the story has been picked up by the very smart folks at EscapePod, so now it is also available for your listening pleasure.
They felt the need to tack a lot of warnings and disclaimers on the start of this one. I was amused.
Yes, I know. Someone has already emailed me the link. All I can say is that someone at Albedo One obviously has good taste in art. Confused? Well, here you go… the latest issue of Albedo One and the cover to Realms: The First Year of Clarkesworld Magazine:

I’ve selected the cover art for Realms: The Second Year of Clarkesworld Magazine:

We’re just getting started on this one, so we probably won’t start taking preorders until after the holidays.
Yesterday, I finished shipping all the preordered (and paid for) copies of REALMS: THE FIRST YEAR OF CLARKESWORLD MAGAZINE (trade paperback and hardcover). Amazon, Powells, and other dealers should have their copies in the next week or so, but the best way to support Clarkesworld is to order direct from us at Wyrm Publishing. Every penny we make from this book goes towards paying for the fiction and non-fiction published by Clarkesworld.
Don’t want the book, but still want to help out? Well, we have a list of things that can you can do, some of which cost you absolutely nothing. We’re also trying something new this year: the Clarkesworld Census. Basically, anyone who donates $10 or more becomes a citizen of Clarkesworld. The second volume of Realms will contain a census that lists the names (or appropriate aliases) of each citizen. So, $10 and you’re in the book… unless you don’t want to be. 🙂 |
