I’m delighted to announce the latest issue of ParSec SF/F magazine has been published today and is available to buy from PS Publishing’s website here. Issue 8 includes my story “Pennies in the Meme Jar” – a near future tale where our protagonist both discovers and then loses herself within the illicit world of addictive meme-strips. It was a lot of fun to write and I hope readers will enjoy it too.

I was lucky enough to see an early proof copy of the full magazine. I can therefore confirm there’s some cracking fiction in this issue from a bunch of very talented authors. (The same can be said of previous issues). ParSec hasn’t being going that long but under the skilful editorship of Ian Whates it’s already building a strong reputation for high quality science fiction and fantasy. For example, Neil Williamson’s story from ParSec 4 “A Moment of Zugzwang” was a BSFA award finalist this year.

If you haven’t done so already, it’s well worth checking ParSec out.
