Updating the IN YOUR FACE crowdfunding campaign
Well, we’re absolutely blown away by the fantastic response we’ve had to the In Your Face crowdfunding campaign. In five days we’re heading to nearly double the initial target, and all the early bird print rewards have been taken! But there is still a long way to go and plenty excellent rewards (particularly pre-orders of the book) still available. Based on the word count of stories we have in hand, we will need to hit around $4,500 in the campaign to be able to pay pro-rates for all original stories, so that is the target we’re aiming for as a stretch goal.
You might also be interested in reading about the story behind the story that many of our authors are posting – we’ve rounded up the ones published so far here.
Thank you to everyone who has already backed the campaign – we look forward to having your book to you in late March. And a huge thanks to everyone who has shared the campaign with their social networks – it’s a massive help, and greatly appreciated!

Sparking In Your Face: Thoraiya Dyer
Thoraiya Dyer is a four-time Aurealis Award-winning, three-time Ditmar Award-winning, Sydney-based Australian writer. Her work has appeared in Clarkesworld, Apex, Cosmos, Analog and pretty much every FablecCroft anthology. Her collection of four original stories, Asymmetry, is available from Twelfth Planet Press and her debut novel, Crossroads of Canopy, first in the Titan’s Forest trilogy, is forthcoming from Tor books in 2017.
Dyer is represented by the Ethan Ellenberg Literary Agency. She is a member of SFWA. A qualified veterinarian, her other interests include bushwalking, archery and travel. Find her online at Goodreads, Twitter (@ThoraiyaDyer) or www.thoraiyadyer.com.
My In Your Face story, “Where the Pelican Builds Her Nest”, came from the collision of two emotions. One, my glumness that wildlife, so glorious when allowed to thrive in pristine wilderness, can be as corrupted by the environmental degradation of our cities as human beings are. Two, my anger that TV rapists are so often depicted as strangers.
When I think of pelicans, I want to think of them sailing in proud flotillas across the sapphire waters of Port Stephens in NSW, scavenging guts from recreational fisherpeople at worst!
Statistics from the ABS tell us that when we think of rapists, we should think, 68% of the time, about somebody known to the victim. I think of the brother-in-law from “A Streetcar Named Desire” and how the sister stays with him in the end. That a scenario from a play written in 1947 remains probable is angry-making to me.
The title of the story comes from the poem by Mary Hannay-Foott, “Where the Pelican Builds Her Nest,” which I love for its movement and imagery even though it’s about white settlement and all the disease, death and displacement implied in that process. You can read the poem at Bushverse here.
If Thoraiya has sparked your interest in the In Your Face anthology and the powerful stories it contains, you might like to support the crowdfunding campaign by pre-ordering the book (and lots of other goodies) at Pozible. And please feel free to share with your networks!

Wow! Target met and aiming for the stars!
We’re very excited about meeting our initial target for the In Your Face crowdfunding campaign, less than 12 hours after launching! We deliberately set a modest target, but would really love to reach out for our stretch goal of increasing the per word payment for each story. The current rate is 3 cents per word for original stories, capped at 5000 words – our first goal will be to extend the rate to the full word count of each story. From there, we would love to increase the rate per word higher, with the ultimate goal being the 6 cents per word advised by SWFA as pro rates.
We’re currently finalising reading of original works, and hope to be able to announce the provisional table of contents in the next few days.
If you would like to back the project, we have limited early bird reward levels at discounted rates for both ebook and print copies – get in quick to nab a great pre-order price!

Welcome to an IN YOUR FACE kind of New Year…
Happy New Year! Welcome to 2016 – may it improve on everything good from the year gone by and contain none of the rubbish bits!
We are very excited to leap straight into the new year (huh, which also happens to be a leap year!) with a brand new crowdfunding campaign for our forthcoming project, In Your Face.
With thanks to the group SpecFaction, who initially sparked off the project in the form of a financial grant intended for just one purpose, to produce an anthology showcasing Australian spec fic, we have been able to offer payment for original stories of 3 cents per word, and for reprints a flat rate of $50 per piece, for around 12-15 stories. This campaign is designed to expand the number of excellent stories we are able to include in the book by at least five stories.
As our goal is always to pay our contributors what their efforts deserve, while our initial target is quite low, our stretch goal once we reach our target will be to increase the amount we are able to pay per story – the aim is to pay pro-rates of 6 cents per word, as per the SWFA guidelines, but we would be pleased to be able to increase the pay rate by any amount.
Rewards include ebook and print editions of the anthology, as well as extra goodies in different bundles. And if you get in quick and support, there are super discounted prices for a limited number of earlybird backers!
I need to offer fair warning: the book will be made up of original and reprinted speculative fiction stories that deal with very provocative themes. The stories we have already accepted are challenging and/or confronting but with a firm purpose – they are pieces that will perhaps make readers uncomfortable because they are a bit too hard-hitting or close to the bone, but which interrogate these themes and ideas, and make a point about the world we live in. It won’t be an easy book to read, but it is a powerful one.
If this sounds like something that’s right up your reading alley, jump on in and pledge your support! We also appreciate every share on social media that spreads the word – our unending gratitude to every person who does so!

Revisiting Pern, the great McCaffrey reread: DRAGONSDAWN
Tehani and Marisol bonded over Pern (and Doctor Who) at a science fiction convention, decided that it was time for a reread of the series, and really, they should blog about that. They are reading in Anne McCaffrey’s preferred way, which is basically publication order.
Pern Series – Dragonsdawn
T: In my memory, Dragonsdawn was one of my very favourite books. Revisiting it, I realised that actually, I didn’t love it quite as much anymore. Part of that may have been that I just wasn’t as invested in the characters (although Sean and Sorka remain favourites). But a lot of it came down to, I think, the pacing. There were sections I really skimmed over, and I don’t think it was because it was a reread – it was because they were a bit overlong and kind of dull…
M: This is the first book, chronologically speaking, and after reading it I’m reminded why I firmly believe one should NOT read this book first. I’d pick just about any other book before it. It’s a good book overall, but it’s not Pern. It’s Pern Easter Eggs, or the Silmarillion for Pern. The backdrop of how it all began is interesting, but not as interesting as if you know WHY these stories are important in modern day Pern.
T: Heh, good comparison!
M: Especially with what’s coming up. Wiggling in my seat thinking about it.
If you’re trying to decide what order to read them in, I seriously recommend NOT chronological order, like one of my friends keeps trying to do (you know who you are, heed my words. There’s a reason you can’t get past the first third of this book).
T: Stupidly, I had suggested to some people that they COULD start here – I won’t make that mistake any more! That said, someone who was a science fiction reader may find Dragonsdawn more to their liking because it’s more overtly SFnal, so who knows…
M: You missed an A in there, haha. But seriously, while the science fiction is pretty much the entirety of the book, I feel like some of the significance of what they’re doing is lost, ironically, by not knowing the far end result. Which is strange, because you’d think it’d be the other way around!
T: While many of the Pern books have several point of view characters, in Dragonsdawn the focus seemed really scattered. And I was surprised and disappointed by some of the sexist aspects – I thought we were past that by now, and given the societal advancement of the far flung, space travelling future we were in, these parts made me even more sad. I mean, yes, McCaffrey was great about offering a respectable gender balance – Emily Boll as a planetary governor, Sallah and Avril as important crew members, those sorts of things. But so many of the characters in control were still men. Women were still responsible for the childcare. Paul Benden is often quite awful (for example: “He wished now he hadn’t been quite so involved with the sultry brunette but she was quite the most stunning creature.” Or, you know, also an intelligent (if manipulative) PERSON…). I think if you added up the characters, a much bigger proportion (and to use a Hollywood examination, proportion of speaking parts) would be male. And even commentary on Kitti Ping gendering the dragons in an old-fashioned way didn’t really feel deep enough. And that added a little to my being a little less engaged this time.
M: This among other reasons is actually why this is my least favorite book from the series (which I find quite funny we’re on the opposite spectrum with this book). It suffers from the future without forward thinking problem that quite a few sci-fi/fantasy books fail to think about. If the entire world is different, why can’t the social structure be different? It’s like people can’t imagine that, which I find really bizarre, and a big pet peeve of mine. Pern was supposed to be this idealist world. So why were the ideals only extended to an environmentally free world where it hadn’t been ravaged by men? Especially after all the hoopla about how the women and men were such war heroes.
Women, though, were again given more typified villain responses. Look at how Avril is all but compared to a snake with the adjectives ascribed to her. And yet, the men who’re just as evil aren’t painted as manipulative and subversive so much as Avril was. It’s been exhausted, let’s move on to other bad guys. Who are preferably guys.
T: I had entirely misremembered the Sallah story – I thought there was a whole big chunk more of her story told, but it was much less extensive than I had in my head. And I realised, towards the end, that some of the stories I thought were in this book are actually not! They are out of The Chronicles of Pern: First Fall!
M: Sallah’s story is one of my favorites; she’s my favorite character followed closely by Sean and Sorka. I thought there was more of her in here, too, so I was really disappointed when I realized, like you, a chunk was missing.
Her story also has one of the best relationships that I felt didn’t get nearly enough development – her and her husband, Tarvi. That was one of those “Why does she like him so much?” to understanding why, to thinking he’s a pompous ass, to realizing he was emotionally damaged, but it was so behind the scenes! I would have loved to have more of their story and kept other stuff out. The problem with this book being so chockful of information is that it glosses over everything and gives hardly any depth to anyone.
T: I have to make comment on “Ossie” and “Cobber” – such absurd names, meant to represent an Australian heritage!
M: And you can’t miss the accent – hilarious! But at least she gave Aussies a nod!
T: Also interesting that McCaffrey has deliberately made a point about the non-inclusion of religion in this book – it’s brought up a couple of times, but in one case, Emily Boll says particularly “We left that behind on Earth along with war!” And later, of course the mention that Pern has no armies. And you know, that had not really occurred to me until then! I mean, the Lord Holders have armed guards, and the dragonriders could be seen as a dangerous force, but there really aren’t armies, nor the need for them, generally. Quite utopic of McCaffrey.
M: I think it was to underline the point she’s inferred so far in the series for people who ‘don’t get it’. This was meant to be a place unravaged by war. They all escaped for a reason.
Another thing I picked up from that was the swearing. Fardles has made it all the way from first landing to current Pern time. But even in the beginning you didn’t get much in the way of ‘religious’ swearing – damn, etc.
Although ironically, I LOVE that they used the Quaker method of shunning to sort out a terrible problem person. Much worse than prison or physical punishment.
T: This is the one book in which the Impression doesn’t make me cry (I think it’s too drawn out to have the usual impact) but the death of Sallah Telgar (or, more specifically, Tarvi’s reaction to it, including his renaming of himself and their children in her honour at the bonfire) had me in floods. So very sad!
M: One of my favorite scenes. I soaked it all up. Ironically this goes back to where McCaffrey is such a powerful storyteller, and ability to evoke a story’s power in such a short section. Which is why I wanted more!
T: I still enjoyed the book, and I still think it’s a really important story in the Pern milieu, but it’s dropped down a bit on my list of favourites after this reading.
M: I think I feel a top faces list coming on once we finish!

Exciting announcement for 2016 from FableCroft Publishing
In the first of several very exciting announcements we have to make about forthcoming projects for 2016, it is our very great pleasure to make it known that in March 2016, FableCroft will publish The Rebirth of Rapunzel: A Mythic Biography of the Maiden in the Tower by Kate Forsyth.
This unique collection will include Kate’s research on the Rapunzel story that underpinned her stunning, award-winning novel, Bitter Greens, as well as several other pieces related to fairy tales and folklore. The book is not your usual reference work, but an wonderful exploration of the subject matter, written in Kate’s clever and engaging style.
We plan to release both a hardcover print edition as well as an accessible ebook version, with cover art by one of our favourite authors, Kathleen Jennings, and aim to launch at the Natcon, Contact, in Brisbane over the Easter long weekend.

Revisiting Pern, the great McCaffrey reread: MORETA/NERILKA
Tehani and Marisol bonded over Pern (and Doctor Who) at a science fiction convention, decided that it was time for a reread of the series, and really, they should blog about that. They are reading in Anne McCaffrey’s preferred way, which is basically publication order.
Pern Series –
Moreta: Dragonlady of Pern / Nerilka’s Story
T: In Moreta: Dragonlady of Pern, we go back in time several hundreds of years (turns), and read the story of “Moreta’s Ride”, a ballad we were introduced to in earlier books.
M: This is one of those great tiebacks where you realize the ballad in no way reflects the reality of the situation. And given the nature of the entire pandemic, I doubt it could, anyways. Most poignant fact being that no one wanted to admit she was on Holth and not Orlith. Nor was the last wink between as heroic in the story as it sounds in the ballad. It was a terrible accident brought on by exhaustion.
I mean, it’s still heroic, but it’s not the same.
T: One of the things that struck me was how McCaffrey did a pretty good job of making some small societal changes that made it clear it was a different era. Nothing hugely significant, but just tweaks that may logically have changed before we get to the “present day” Pern.
M: The one that stuck with me was the underlying attitude of us versus them. I mean, people did their duty, but it was really lip service for tithings, while simultaneously talking behind people’s backs. It’s no wonder they nearly failed to inoculate all of Pern. Cooperation is not in their mindsets!
T: I also found it interesting how several characters were presented as really unlikeable or not as personable as their counterparts in the “modern” era – Lord Tolocamp of Fort Hold springs to mind, and suffers by comparison to Lord Groghe (who may be hidebound but still generally affable), and of course the Fort Weyrleader, Sh’gall, who is not at all of a like with F’lar!
M: Almost all of them, I thought. Moreta’s story is a cautionary tale of selfish people and how the only handful of thinkers managed to save the planet from being wiped out. Sh’gall in particular is an embarrassment to Weyrkind. He exalts absolutely no virtues whatsoever, and I don’t think being good at organizing Threadfall runs is an excuse to be Weyrleader. And given how often the Queen riders mentioned terrible scorings, many of which put riders out a full Turn, was the final straw. Poor leadership means more accidents, and it showed.
Which is why Orlith liking Sh’gall initially puzzled me. I cannot possibly fathom why.
T: Well, the queen doesn’t necessarily make the choice, right? Sometimes the bronze outflies her…
Moreta, though, is easily comparable to Lessa, although Lessa had a tougher upbringing, which is reflected in her more prickly nature, I think.
M: Moreta reminded me of the mother’s quote from My Big Fat Greek Wedding: “The man is the head, but the woman is the neck. And she can turn the head any way she wants.” There isn’t a partnership here, nor does it seem in any of the Weyrleader partnerships. Which goes back to your comments about changes from the times, I know, but I think it’s sad that the people with common sense have to bull their way through to get things done that need to be done. Ridiculous.
T: So true.
M: Tehani, did you feel like the dragons came across as different, too? I don’t know if Orlith was an oddball as far as dragons are concerned, but her in particular I found – I want to say less evolved, but I don’t think that’s exactly right. Her thought processes were so markedly different from the others we’ve been exposed to, more simplistic and immediate. Other dragons were making observations and pointing things out in later generations, and I didn’t really see any of that awareness in Orlith.
T: I think that’s definitely an evolution to the point of the modern dragons – even Lessa, F’lar, F’nor comment on the way some of the dragons surprise them with their comments on things sometimes. And that culminates in Ruth, whose thought processes and understandings are a marked step up again. It’s quite obvious in the way that Moreta says it’s unusual for a dragon to participate in the healing like Orlith does, so even in THAT time, there were different evolutionary points in dragonkind.
I think there’s an interesting maturity about Nerilka’s Story that you don’t often see in books. We always want the “happy ever after”, and it’s quite unusual to see a “what comes next” story. I don’t know what motivated McCaffrey to write this story (and it’s only a novella, not a true novel), but she clearly had something she wanted to say.
M: I think Nerilka said it best: “To cry was to release all sorts of ugly little pressures and tensions. Like waking out of a long, dark dream to a sun-filled day.” Nerilka’s story is a reminder that we do the best we can with the hand we’re dealt, and sometimes it’s more terrifying and all encompassing than we as individuals can cope with. But it’s not the end, and it’s ok to grieve when needed.
And as a further nod to Anne’s masterful story-telling, I love how she manages to encompass the negative emotions, especially the grief, while managing to show those tiny bright moments that pop in the dark. Rill managing to find a home despite all the mess. Her putting her hard work from the distillery to use before it expired.
T: Did you notice, Nerilka’s Story is the first (I want to say only?) one of the series written in first person?
M: Yes! It reinforced the idea for me that this story was about processing grief and trauma. Because it’s such an intensely personal process, it wouldn’t have the impact in a third person account.
Life isn’t all kittens and rainbows, but we can find those small rainbows amongst the showers. It’s a beautiful, powerful story that sticks with you.
