So it turns out that
Lightspeed Magazine is in the last two days of a successful
Kickstarter with the goal of publishing a double-sized SF issue created entirely by women. They've knocked down two additional stretch goals, which add two more double-sized women-only issues to the list: one fantasy and one horror. Five bucks for all three is a bargain, but that's not what made me pledge (or post).
The real bargain, IMO, is the $40 pledge. It was originally a one-year subscription to Lightspeed plus the first special issue, and now it's all three special issues, the one-year subscription,
plus the first four years of Lightspeed.
Let's see - add 35 bucks and get sixty more monthly issues, over 40 of which are available right now? I'm
in.
The project closes Saturday night at midnight Eastern time. All the content is advertised as available in EPUB, mobi, and PDF formats, and some pledges even include dead trees.
