New Fantasy and Sci-Fi Magazine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An exciting new monthly fantasy and sci-fi<\/strong> e-magazine has been launched from Australia this April 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Short Stories by Independent Authors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This monthly new magazine is called The Independent Fantasy and Sci-Fi Magazine<\/strong><\/a>. The magazine exclusively publishes Fantasy and Sci-Fi short stories by independent authors. The first issue, for April 2026, has already been published with ten great speculative fiction short stories by independent authors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Magazine and Newsletter<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The e-magazine is emailed out to paying subscribers each month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The magazine’s publisher also emails out newsletters about the magazine and its authors. These newsletters are sent out to both paid subscribers of the e-magazine and other interested persons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Readers of Speculative Fiction<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Seaswell Publishing<\/strong> commends this independent magazine to speculative fiction readers who love short stories. It is not only a great read but also an opportunity for readers to get to know new independent authors and their particular writing styles. Many of the contributing short story authors also write novels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Independent Speculative Fiction Authors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We also commend it to independent authors of speculative fiction short stories who may be looking for an opportunity to present their short story fiction to a wider world audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About the New Magazine<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

For more information about this exciting new e-magazine publishing enterprise, go to The Independent Fantasy and Sci-Fi Magazine<\/strong>‘s website here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Disclaimer<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Seaswell Publishing<\/a><\/strong> has no connection with or financial interest in The Independent Fantasy and Sci-Fi Magazine<\/strong>. This post is in the nature of a review and news item for the benefit of all readers and writers of speculative short fiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, author Barrie Cameron<\/a> is pleased to mention that he has had one of his short stories, Blue Planet<\/em>, accepted for publication in the May 2026 issue of this new e-magazine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
