Magazines.Thousands of them. This is going to be a bit complicated, because the website is so huge: Galactic Central. You can try your luck from there, but - as I said, it's complicated. The web-site was originally dedicated to bibliographies, specifically those related to science fiction and fantasy authors, and introduced a list of fiction magazines (with particular emphasis on which had or had not been indexed) as a useful reference. However, this latter list grew and grew with time (particularly after I joined the Fictionmags mailing list) and it now occupies about 95% of the website (and 99% of the effort devoted to it!). You rather want to start at the first page of the cover scans, starting with "A". Or begin with the data pages. One can actually spend hours there. This collection is enormous. Unbelievable. 4:12:55 PM   Art & Advertising, Literature | |

This is Not Funny. There's one thing I really don't like. That thing is, when someone posts silly entries in someone else's public guestbook under my name and even worse, with my private email address in the open for everyone to see, read and being spambotted. As it is, I'm already getting spam enough on all my other email-accounts. I really don't need my private address as a trash bin, and I'm only using my private address for private correspondence. That's why it's private. So whoever did this, it was a very foolish thing to do. And I don't find this funny at all. Idiot. 8:52:34 AM    | |

Whenever a Shakespeare actor of the Globe Theatre approaches you in the Anchor Pub and asks silly questions, be careful. Be very careful. 12:22:48 AM   Basil Says | |
