Do YOU like queer protagonists in books? Dystopian horror? Silly sci-fi novels?

Or supporting your local queer indie author?

THEN consider delving into Tales from a Mall, a wacky sci-fi novel where ferrets have mechanical attachments, snails have legs, and there is something sinister going on in the 22nd century Fresh Malls. Perhaps something to do with the rats. Lots and lots of rats...

Only $10!

https://www.amazon.com/Tales-Mall-future-become-ridiculous/dp/B0BK6PVMX3/ref=sr_1_1

Or consider exploring the dark world of Boxes, a sci-fi horror novel following the journey of nonbinary Baxley through the Complex. Monsters roam the halls, stairs descend endlessly into the earth, and a sweet madness has overcome the denizens, turning them into something else entirely. See trigger warnings if necessary!

Only $16!

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B8BPW3P5/ref=dbs_a_def_awm_bibl_vppi_i0GJhNzA3ZTZmM2I2NGY5ZDVmNWQ1NSwzNzdhNmM0ZGIwMTBiMTg2Y2FmNTZiNDIxZDI4YjA0MWQxMWM0NGY5&ts=1660371335

Psssssttttttt... Do you like gay, and robots, and sci-fi books?

Then the book I am publishing as part of Booktopia 2024 may be for you!

Watch my dumb gay robots bumble around as they figure out what they're doing and how to live after they decide to shirk their responsibilities and run away together.

If you like: Asimov's robot series, Cargill's Sea of Rust, Newitz's Autonomous, Chambers' A Psalm for the Wild Built, Detroit: Become Human, Space Sweepers, Robocop, or any variety of robotic sci-fi in between, you'll love this book. This book is my love-letter to the sci-fi community as a whole with lots of little nods back to various sci-fi works.

This will be my debut words-words-words novella at 46,000 words and I wanna make a physical book so bad. I hope you'll help me get there. You can subscribe now to get an email when the project launches, but don't worry... I'll be screaming a bunch here too leading up to the project in September. It's live now. :)

As part of Booktopia, I'll be cross-collaborating with Space Wizard Science Fantasy, who is publishing Lesbians in Space. Space Wizard Science Fantasy is bringing together some great sapphic writers in this new volume of relationships set in space! You'll also love more sci-fi/fantasy and LGBTQ+ crossover.

LIVE NOW DURING BOOKTOPIA!

Nocturne Fanzine | Michael Verina, 1981

While researching this zine I was really touched by some of the testimonials from editors, readers, and contributors. I've included them below :) Always remember who carved the way before us! Thank you fandom foremothers (and fathers)!

"From what I understand from friends in the UK, homosexuality was still illegal when women began writing and publishing K/S. Most K/S zines at the time were done on mimeo machines or other types of home copying that entirely controllable by the editor. K/S fanzines from the US were often seized as pornographic by Customs." - Kathy Resch, 2010 interview

"All zines are brought out with a mixture of blood, sweat, tears and most of all, love. Love of the characters, and of Star Trek, and being privileged to know at least one of the girls involved in NOCTURNE -- [Ms. Jean B] -- I can assure you, that if she is involved, there will be 'love in abundance' … and so from me, Good Luck, Girls! Any new K/S Zine must be a welcome sight on the horizon!" - Unknown, 1981

Foreword from Editor Lee Owers:

"Welcome to NOCTURNE. The production of this zine was never an attempt to rival the well-known (and much-loved) American K/S zines but it is, perhaps true that it began by saying "we can do it, too." Somewhere along the way, nationality was forgotten and the zine's message changed to "let's do it together." NOCTURNE became, in my opinion, an example of the best of K/S fan fiction and art on both sides of the Atlantic. I am gratified that this has happened, not only because the zine has benefited from the blending of skills but because, in its compilation, I have experienced that special unity, cooperation and trust that is the spirit of STAR TREK and fandom.

I would like to thank all the contributors for their enthusiasm and assistance, without which NOCTURNE could not have been produced. My thanks to the writers for sharing their dreams with us and to the artists for turning those dreams into a visual, and beautiful reality.

I leave you now to read, and I hope, enjoy. One word of advice to the potential K/S fan:

After a time you will find that wanting is not so pleasing a thing, after all, as having. It is not logical, but it is always true!

Peace in IDIC, Lee"

Please help me leave my country

Hey everyone. My name is Jay (also Temmie and Artemis). I'm a Belarusian queer person in dire need of financial assistance, and I need it asap.

TLDR: My Canadian girlfriend offered to sponsor me to get me out of Belarus, but I have to get plane tickets and leave the country before the 21st of August. Otherwise, as an amab Belarusian, I'll be forced to attend compulsory military training, stuck in Belarus and putting myself at severe risk whether I choose to try and dodge it or not.

Earlier this month my gf who lives in Canada offered to sponsor me, giving me a way to leave the country that hates me for being queer and live with her, but plane tickets to Canada cost way more than I initially expected, and in the time that I have left to leave Belarus I won't be able to find that much money. I have until the 21st to do so because, as an amab person living in Belarus, I'm obligated to do military training, and if I don't show up to the office on the 21st next month I'll lose the ability to cross the border at all. Aside from the obvious fact that I'm queer and being forced into a hypermasculine/homophobic environment will be awful for me, military training in Belarus is associated with extreme abuse and hazing, so it isn't an exaggeration to say that this is life-threatening.

It's impossible to tell how much money I'll need in advance, but prices for plane tickets to Canada, from what I've seen so far, range between around 1100-1600$ depending on the date, airline and place I'll be leaving from, not including additional fees for oversized luggage or luggage in general. I might also potentially need to stay in whatever country I'll be departing from for some time. I can't just depart from Belarus, since Belarusian airlines are sanctioned and you can't get anywhere from here.

I myself will have around... 500$, maybe a little more, after a couple of weeks, but that's obviously not going to be enough. So I really need help. If you have any money to spare, please donate to the ko-fi my friend @estradoriol set up for me. It's linked above, but just in case: https://ko-fi.com/savetemmie

You can also donate to my friend's cashapp $doriftoz

Again, since I don't have any reach, I'll @ some people. Sorry and thank you in advance for any help you can offer
