The Future Fire @10: “TFFX”

The Future Fire magazine of social-political speculative fiction, has been publishing Feminist, Queer, Environmental and Postcolonial SF, cyberpunk and horror since 2005. To celebrate our tenth anniversary this year, we’re running a campaign to raise funds to publish an anthology containing a mixture of reprints, enhanced stories and new material, including sequels and other spin-offs, new artwork and satirical or speculative pseudo-fiction.

The anthology, dubbed “TFFX,” will be edited by Djibril al-Ayad (editor-in-chief of TFF magazine since 2005 and owner of Futurefire.net Publishing), Cécile Matthey (in-house illustrator at TFF since 2006, and assistant editor since 2014), and Valeria Vitale (copyeditor and assistant editor of TFF since 2012), and will be available in print and e-book by the end of the year.

The fundraiser runs throughout the month of August, and can be found at: http://igg.me/at/tffx

You can support this project by pre-ordering the anthology in e-book or trade paperback, or you can pick up some of our other perks: copies of the other Futurefire.net Publishing anthologies, the Lowest Heaven anthology generously donated by Jurassic London, limited edition hardcopies of zine issues, short story critiques, custom knitted undead dolls in your likeness. We'll also be adding some artwork perks in the next few days: TFF wouldn’t be where it is today without the work of our many wonderful artists! And if you can't back us financially at the moment, please help us get the word out, offer a guest post or interview opportunity, run a writing contest, or come up with other novel ideas.

You can follow the campaign on Twitter or Facebook, or subscribe to updates at Indiegogo.
