To
Infinity and Beyond.
You know that you've made it onto the British science fiction scene
when crusty old Interzone - the only native print magazine for short
SFF fiction in the UK - invites you to do a guest editorial.

Basically, this means an entire issue is made over in the guest
team's image. Such a fate has been handed out to the March 2002
issue of the Hugo-winning SF magazine, Interzone, with said issue
being guest-edited by the infinity plus team, with fiction, features
and reviews from a selection of the site's own contributors.
Alas, such an honour has never been accorded to SFcrowsnest, but
then perhaps wise old David Pringle doesn't fancy having his next
issue sporting an SFX-style babe on the cover, and an issue packed
full of dynamic space opera. He'd probably lose his Arts Council
funding quicker than a star ship flipping into Warp Nine.
Well, no danger of that with the Infinity Plus on the case. In
fact, if Interzone was a web site, it would probably be Infinity
Plus.
Here's a quick run-down of some of the esteemed contributors to
Interzone; no surprise that most of them are contributors to El
Pringle's organ too.

If quality online fiction with a literary spin is your thing, then
you could do far worse than surf on over to Infinity Plus.
We understand they have their own second print issue coming out
some time in the near future (late 2002), siphoning off the best
of their contributions to fuel the occasional dead tree issue.
Nice idea. Nice site. Hmmm. Nice.
