It’s been an age and a half since Shaun and Jen sat down to have a conversation, but we’re back to let you know about a very special month at Skiffy and Fanty — Black Speculative Fiction Month! October was designated Black Speculative Fiction month in 2013 by Milton Davis and Balogun Ojetade (who also co-edited the anthology Steamfunk), and after hearing about it, we knew that we had to celebrate it. In consultation with Tonia Thompson of Nightlight Pod and our very own Teri.Zin (who has a new amazing essay over at Uncanny Magazine that you should go read immediately), we’re working on some amazing content for you guys. In addition to discussing our upcoming month of awesome, we also explain why we’ve been gone and briefly tackle the mess over at Goodreads regarding how they deleted two magazines, Fiyah and Anathema, by and for people of color. And, as always, we share some awesome things for our mini-boosts. We hope you enjoy the episode!
