Pulp Literature Autumn 2020: Issue 28
Under the watchful gaze of Ashley Rose Goentoro’s Faery Godmother, memories are writ large in short fiction from Renée Sarojini Saklikar, Dawn Lo, Weiwei Xu, and Soramimi Hanarejima, and stars and moons illuminate stories by James Dorr and David Milne. Poetry comes from the Magpie Award winners Charlene Kwiatkowski, Maria Ford, and Cara Waterfall, a puzzle from SiWC contest winner Cameron MacDonald, and humour from Susan Pieters, while heroines Toinette and Frankie Ray return us to 17th century France and 1930s Hollywood with JM Landels and Mel Anastasiou.
