Finally, the zines are live and so am I
Posted in THE Zines, Writing on July 2nd, 2008
The marathon effort to get the zines up and live for the 1st of the month is now done. Gumshoe Review, SFRevu, and TechRevu are now all up online with new content. As you can probably guess by the names, Gumshoe Review covers the mystery scene with reviews, author interviews, news items relevant to the field, media, and books coming out this month (that we know about and have a copy of). We’d also like to do reviews of monthly mystery magazines but alas no one has seen fit to contact us about their magazine or send review copies. SFRevu is our big sister publication and covers all the same areas as does Gumshoe Review, but in this case it’s all things speculative fiction based (SF, Fantasy, Horror, and the subgenres). Only on SFRevu, Sam Tomaino covers the magazines and short fiction and usually has review of 8-10 magazines a month. We also tend to have more media reviews (as we have two dedicated movie reviewers — though one is off for health problems).
TechRevu is our technology zine. The news items are updated daily and there new usually indepth reviews or commentary on technology weekly. We’ve been working very diligently to make this online magazine your source for information on technology you can use to better your quality of life, or manage your life, or because it’s just plain neat and we like it.
Take a look and see what I and Ernest Lilley and the other staff of these zines are doing with our time. We’d really like to share our excitement about our mystery, science fiction, and technology magazines.
PS: Tomorrow — July’s cup. I can hardly wait to share.
