Stories for Spring
Welcome to March 2018 issue of Swords & Sorcery Magazine. Here in Massachusetts it is spring. The snow is melting, the grass is turning green, folks are playing horrible pranks on each other. Here are two stories to enjoy while you are hiding from the change and chaos.
“The Verdigris Caper”, by James Lecky, is a comic take on fantasy about a wizard who takes on a foe just a bit beyond his capabilities. Lecky’s work has appeared in Beneath Ceaseless Skies, Heroic Fantasy Quarterly, and several times previously in Swords & Sorcery.
“The Maiden’s Leap”, by Mike Riffe, tells the story of a young woman hunted by the Black Knight and his Wild Riders. Riffe is new to Swords & Sorcery and as a published author.
As always I can be reached with questions or comments at editor@swordsandsorcerymagazine.com. Public comments can be made on our Facebook Page (https://www.facebook.com/SwordsAndSorceryMagazine). Swords & Sorcery also has a twitter feed, @SwordsNSorcery, where we post links to stories when they are posted. Submissions are always welcome but please see the guidelines before submitting. I’m looking for genre related reviews and critical essays as well as short fiction. I may consider occasional publication of longer fiction, as well. Please query before submitting anything not within the guidelines.
Until next month…
