I mentioned last month that an increasing way of generating revenue (so that you Dear Reader can get your fiction-fix for free) is to have fund drives.
So without further ado, over to my friend, Susan Marie Groppi, editor of the wonderful Strange Horizons:
"Strange Horizons is unusual for SF magazines. We're the longest-running online magazine in the genre, and we've built our reputation by showcasing exciting new voices in the field. We see ourselves as part of a community, part of this larger world of SF readers and writers and fans. We depend on the community for our support, and for our very existence.
Donate $25 and you can have your own Strange Horizons member card, with our logo and your name on one side, with exclusive original artwork by Jeremiah Tolbert on the other side. If you donate $50, you can have a lovely Strange Horizons logo mug or t-shirt. For $100, you can have a mug -and- a t-shirt, along with a selection of some of the best small-press zines and chapbooks in speculative fiction. Donors who give us $250 or more get all of those lovely prizes, and they also get our portable tea party package, which now includes a hand-knit tea cozy in your choice of colors.
Everyone who donates is entered in a special prize drawing. We have a great set of prizes this year, including a lot of original artwork, magazine subscriptions, and a hand-knit hat monster that will eat your head. (Seriously!) We're also going to be doing special bonus prize drawings during the month, and I'll be posting more information on that later."
Take a look over at Strange Horizons website!
