Callisto scoped the mat of grey hair on his twiggy chest and the bulgy veins all over him. She wondered if it was because he was dustyfooted or just because he was very, very old.

The SFWA Recognizes AE Print

D.F. McCourt

Let’s go back to the very beginning. When AE was but a glimmer in our eyes the thing that kept us going, that made us actually do this crazy thing, was the idea that Canadian SF writers deserved, needed, a professional domestic market.

Letter from the Editors, Issue 7 Print

D.F. McCourt

I have limited patience for long stories. When I heft a book like War and Peace or Cryptonomicom or Infinite Jest, I feel a sort of fatigue before I even turn to the first page. Sometimes these epics turn out to be a fantastic investment of time – Ulysses is over nine hundred pages long, for example – but even when they are, I can’t help but wonder if the story couldn’t have been told better in less space.
