BCS #118 is out today, featuring two lyrical fantasties by authors new to BCS and a podcast by a returning author.

“The Crows Her Dragon’s Gate” is by Benjanun Sriduangkaew, whose work has been in Clockwork Phoenix 4 and Giganotosaurus and this month’s Clarkesworld. “Blood, Stone, Water” is by A.J. Fitzwater, who has had stories in Crossed Genres and Fantastique Unfettered.

The BCS Audio Fiction Podcast episode is BCS 101: Armistice Day by Marissa Lingen, whose stories we have podcasted multiple times before (BCS 091: Cursed Motives and BCS 066: The Witch’s Second).

BCS #118 is our first issue out since word of nomination for the Hugo for Best Semiprozine.  Thank you to all who found us worthy!
