We're holding our annual Kickstarter in October this year instead of in June like usual. This is one of the major ways our readers support our ability to keep bringing you wonderful things to read.

If you want to check how it's going—whether to donate money or to figure out how close we are to unlocking another of the stories, poems, reviews, or essays in the fund drive issue, you can follow this link to the Kickstarter page.

(We also accept donations year round, and have an active Patreon. But the Kickstarter is a big part of how we budget for special issues each year.)



Romie Stott is the administrative editor and a poetry editor of Strange Horizons, and author of the horror novel Nothing in the Basement (Dybbuk Press, 2025).

Outside of poetry, she is best known for her essays in The Toast and Atlas Obscura, and short stories in Analog and Tractor Beam. As a filmmaker, she has been a guest artist of the National Gallery (London), the Institute of Contemporary Art (Boston), and the Dallas Museum of Art.

Mnth’R had helped her understand that their isolation had more to do with the Raja’s exploitation of their cast’s fears than any shortcomings of theirs, his Manifest Sight propaganda curdling climate anxieties into prejudice against community members. Serthe’P needed to remember that their lives mattered too much to be reduced by a tyrant’s ideology. Separated from the cast, they were still finding ways to take care of each other.
