The Strange Horizons fund drive has concluded for another year, and you have made it one of our most successful. In 2020, we will have a fully funded Strange Horizons and Samovar, special issues on Mexican SFF and climate change, and a podcast collaboration with Be the Serpent. You have unlocked the rainbow snake logo for pin-loving backers and supported an upcoming Twitter thread by one of our donor authors. And! And! You have raised our rates! We now pay $90 US for articles, $50 for poetry, and ten cents per word for fiction, beginning with material purchased for intended publication in 2020. You blew right past our first stretch goals and forced us to think of more, and we're all so very excited to put your funds and good faith to use, providing a platform for voices⁠ new and international, creative and resisting.

Thank you once again for your enthusiastic support.

Tu enfiles longuement la chemise des murs,/ tout comme d’autres le font avec la chemise de la mort.
The little monster was not born like a human child, yelling with cold and terror as he left his mother’s womb. He had come to life little by little, on the high, three-legged bench. When his eyes had opened, they met the eyes of the broad-shouldered sculptor, watching them tenderly.
Le petit monstre n’était pas né comme un enfant des hommes, criant de froid et de terreur au sortir du ventre maternel. Il avait pris vie peu à peu, sur la haute selle à trois pieds, et quand ses yeux s’étaient ouverts, ils avaient rencontré ceux du sculpteur aux larges épaules, qui le regardaient tendrement.
We're delighted to welcome Nat Paterson to the blog, to tell us more about his translation of Léopold Chauveau's story 'The Little Monster'/ 'Le Petit Monstre', which appears in our April 2024 issue.
For a long time now you’ve put on the shirt of the walls,/just as others might put on a shroud.
