Beyond thrilled with how BFB6 came together! Our deepest gratitude for the authors whose patience and skill made this issue work so nicely. It's seriously a joy that we get to work with them!

We have seven new stories and four poems, from hive mind farmers to Interplanetary eavesdropping and everything in between!

And even though this is our first issue without a witch feature, you can still expect to find mushrooms and fey 🍄✨

This made Elyse's heart so full! 😊 Such a beautiful story too!!

Hehe glad you're excited! The squid harvest is such a strong image - absolutely perfect for a cover!!

We're incredibly pleased with how this issue came together! There are some hard-hitting stories in this one, quite directly tackling issues that are playing out around us, but there is escape here too. Fun to be had and comfort to warm your bones.

So happy to share this with you later this week 💀

Squidscape cover art by our regular collaborator @lucaskurz.bsky.social and inspired by @danifroom.bsky.social's poem "Entry 44"

Love how this cover turned out! Lucas did a fantastic job bringing the poem's bleak thaw to life.

Featuring work by @deborahldavitt.com, @marysoonlee.bsky.social, Parker McIntosh, @mcardlejeanne.bsky.social, @danifroom.bsky.social, @jimoloughlin.bsky.social, Lynn Sargent, @madalenadaleziou.bsky.social, @the-lettersea.com, @iamchrisscott.bsky.social

We've already been digging through the slush pile, and there's SO MUCH great work in here that we can't wait to publish! Witling down the longlist is going to be a painful experience.

Suffice to say though, we still have a lot of reading to do before then 😅
