First Happy Anniversary Aspen Mountain Press
And congratulations to all those Tourist who have made it this far.
Welcome to Aura…AMP’s new Speculative Fiction imprint!
It’s still early days, but we at AMP have to tell you we are thrilled at how the imprint is shaping up. We’re getting in a flow of very good manuscripts, covering all the range of Speculative Fiction: horror, science fiction, fantasy. We’ve even got short stories and Young Adult works arriving—enough that we should be able to start off with a full schedule from the very start.
We’re even working on developing an appropriate format for short fiction, debating the pros and cons of magazine format, anthology, and individual titles. I have to admit, we’re not quite sure what way we want to jump with that: it’s one of the exciting things about working on the imprint: we’re getting to invent new forms for an entirely new medium and new distribution system, and that means we can’t just assume the old forms will do the job.
It’s a thrilling and humbling experience, one designed to make one realize how much a publishing imprint depends on the talents of so many people. WE are excited by our fellows in AMP who are contributing, We are thrilled by our writers—and looking forward to meeting our readers.So, again, welcome. Please, join us and leave a comment—and be prepared to come visit us on October 1st, when we will be launching with a line-up well suited to a Hallowe’en flight of fancy.
One Lucky winner will win a PDF Copy of Celina Summers The Reckoning of Asphodel.
