Peter Crowther interviewed by Gareth D Jones
Posted by Paul Raven on July 2nd, 2008 at 6:39
Short-story author Gareth D Jones has been running a series of posts on his blog wherein he talks to the editors of short fiction venues to get a feel for how they do their job ... and what they look for in a story!
Gareth had some questions for PS Publishing's very own Peter Crowther, and the results appeared yesterday. Here's Gareth asking Pete about whether Postscripts is an an attempt to compete against 'The Big Three':
GDJ: Do you think you could eventually compete with the big-selling professional mags, or would you even want to?
PC: I didn't and still don't set out to compete with anyone, either as a publisher or as a magazine. I set out to publish exactly what I wanted to publish. Let's not forget that we're small fry next to the likes of F&SF, Asimov's and Analog but yes, we'd like to build our reputation so that some of the readers of those fine titles decided to try our wares. But I don't want any success for us to result in a reduction in take-up for them -- we need more mags not fewer, and there's room for all of us. We need to get back to the halcyon days of many, many venues for the short-form.
On that point, I'm sure most Newsroom regulars can agree! If you feel the urge to support a bespoke short fiction market and acquire a highly collectable item in the process (not to mention a huge selection of quality science fiction stories), you could do far worse than pre-order a copy of Postscripts #15:
- Postscripts #15 (multi-autograph slipcased hardcover) - £75 (US$150 approx) - 100 copies only
- Postscripts #15 (signed hardcover) - £30 (US$60 approx) - 300 copies only
- Postscripts #15 (hardcover) - £15 (US$30 approx) - 600 copies only
Or take out a subscription, and receive four issues of Postscripts in a year plus the bonus end-of-year chapbook - a plan with no drawbacks!

The title says it all, folks - here's the final front cover for Postscripts #15, based on Al Feldstein's lush painting:
Maybe it's just my inner five-year-old speaking, but I think everything goes better with dinosaurs.

Not only is Postscripts #15 a Paul McAuley special, but it's a Worldcon 2008 special edition as well. What that means is, should you go the distance and plump for the extremely limited slipcased edition, it will come signed by not merely editors Nick and Peter, but by the majority of the contributing authors, plus all of the interior artists and cover artist Al Feldstein.
As special editions and collectable volumes are concerned, we challenge you to suggest a more special and affordable example - especially one with as much awesome fiction in it as Postscripts #15! Click through below to secure your copy ahead of the rush:
- Postscripts #15 (multi-autograph slipcased hardcover) - £75 (US$150 approx) - 100 copies only
- Postscripts #15 (signed hardcover) - £30 (US$60 approx) - 300 copies only
- Postscripts #15 (hardcover) - £15 (US$30 approx) - 600 copies only

Horror fiction webzine Dark Scribe recently announced the results of their inaugural Black Quill Awards.
One of the winners was Tim Lebbon, who took the 'Best Dark Scribble (Editor's Choice)' award for his incredibly powerful and cathartic story, 'Discovering Ghosts', which was first published in Postscripts #10.
Many congrats to Tim!

Finished Cover: ‘Postscripts #12′ edited by Peter Crowther and Nick Gevers
Posted by Darren on October 27th, 2007 at 8:28
Here's the finished cover design for out forthcoming 12th issue of our Postscripts magazine, with artwork by Britist artist Ben Baldwin (whose website, incidentally, is packed full of stunning digital art images, drawings and paintings - go take a look.)
New Artwork by Ben Baldwin for ‘Postscripts issue #14 (definitely) #12′. As you were, everyone…
Posted by Darren on October 22nd, 2007 at 20:01
A correction of our earlier, (as it turns out) incorrect correction
>Ahem< - Earlier today I said the following:
Apologies to all for the confusion but I inadvertently mixed up the cover art for two forthcoming issues of Postscripts Magazine.
It turns out that the Ben Baldwin artwork I posted on Friday will actually be used on the cover of Issue #14 of the mag, not Issue #12 as I incorrectly stated. Issue #12 will instead be graced by cover art from regular PS artist James Hannah.
This came at the end of a mini-saga which started with our having to cancel the hitherto-planned and announced 'Holiday' issue of Postscripts from the 2007 schedule for reasons of time pressure and all the usual things that afflict independent presses the world over, we're sure (subscribers will of course be unaffected and anyone who ordered a copy of that issue will still receive the correct issue number, just maybe a couple of months later than expected).
At that point, following a slight failure on my part to read the appropriate memo, I updated the website catalogue to show Ben Baldwin's lovely artwork (below) as the cover of issue #12. Only to then discover that this was actually going to be the artwork for #14, with James Hannah crafting the artwork for #12 (as above). So I swapped them over. Which was fine, except for the fact that James Hannah has specifically illustrated (as we asked him to) the Paul Jessup story from issue #14, 'The Ghosts We Have Become', which - in our defence - you have to admit does sound almost spookily like the Paul Jessup story we're publishing in issue #12, 'Ghost Technology From the Sun'.
Anyway, you can see how things got just a teensy bit topsy-turvy at the end of a long and very busy website re-launch week here at PS Towers. Oh, how we laughed...
So, to finally re-confirm, for definite: the twelfth, Autumn issue of Postscripts Magazine will feature the Ben Baldwin's wonderfully Autumnal 'Liminal Spaces':
Whilst James Hannah's artwork, which we do now have on file and will feature on the blog in the near future, will now proudly take its place on the cover of Postscripts Issue #14.
This bit of my earlier post still holds true, so I'll leave it in [with embellishments]:
Apologies [yet] again, particularly to Ben and James; my bad entirely, I clearly didn't read the relevant memo [or, indeed, and quite possibly, memos] properly. I can only plead the couple of hundred [and then some] memos-per-week that have been circulating PS Towers like a flock of starlings on amphetamines [and several other class-A substances banned by international treaty] recently, what with the re-launch of the website and all. No excuse really, of course... if anyone needs me, I'll be in the corner with the dunce's hat on [tapping myself repeatedly on the head with a parsnip]...
Yours, comically (or should that be comic-tragically?)

Out Now: Postscripts magazine, issue #11
Posted by Darren on September 11th, 2007 at 19:10
The 11th issue of our award-winning Postscripts magazine is now available - indeed, our subscribers should already have received their copies (although overseas subscribers may still be waiting on their local postal services to deliver...)
Postscripts #11 features a guest editorial by Paul Di Filippo and includes brand new short fiction from Matthew Rossi, Kealan Patrick Burke, Mikal Trimm, Dave Hoing, Forrest Aguirre, Steve Aylett, Richard Paul Russo, Eric Schaller, David Barnett and Christopher Harman.
Missing Signature
A message from Pete: "A quick heads-up to readers and subscribers of the signed hardcover edition of Postscripts. During the course of the dreaded signing sheets going the rounds of all the contributors we discovered that Matthew Rossi has moved house. Even more frustrating, he's also changed email addresses. Thus we had to go without Matt's signature. We're really sorry about that but there's nothing else we could do. I hope it doesn't spoil your enjoyment of the issue too much."
Free gift for Subscribers
And on the subject of subscribing to Postscripts, don't forget that at the end of the year, everyone who holds a current, paid-up subscription to the magazine will receive an exclusive, subscribers-only chapbook, absolutely free of charge, with the end-of-year issue.
This year's chapbook is Joe Hill's 'Saved' - see our earlier News Room post for details.
Postscripts: new short story acceptances, August ‘07
Posted by Darren on August 13th, 2007 at 11:06
Pete and Nick have accepted three new short stories for publication in future issues of Postscripts:
- A new Ray Bradbury tale called 'Juggernaut'. Pete says: "It's a joy!"
- Jack Dann's 'Under the Shadow of Jonah', which Nick describes as: "an extraordinary alternative history story about an alien invasion of Renaissance Italy."
- 'The Eye of Vann' by Matthew Hughes, which Nick tells us is Hughes' "latest Luff Imbry caper, set in the far-future Archonate, picaresque venue supreme."
We'll post more information on which issues of Postscripts these will be appearing in once we've confirmed and finalised the relevant line-ups.
PS Publishing scoops five BFS Award 2007 shortlist nominations
Posted by Darren on August 7th, 2007 at 14:06
Here at PS Publishing we're extremely pleased and proud to have heard - just this morning - that we have been nominated in no fewer than five categories of the British Fantasy Awards for 2007.
Our nominations this year include:
Best Novel
The Face of Twilight by Mark Samuels
Best Short Fiction
'The Veteran' by Conrad Williams, published in Postscripts #6
Best Small Press
Peter Crowther, PS PUBLISHING
Best Artist
Les Edwards*
Best Non-Fiction
Cinema Macabre, edited by Mark Morris
Pete is, naturally, chuffed to bits, and had the following to say on the subject: "The announcement of this year's BFS Awards shortlists prompted the usual run of good-natured badinage about PS being up for the Best Small Press Award for the umpteenth year (Tim Lebbon even quipped that there were moves afoot to change it to the PS Publishing Award! What a fine idea!)
"But all such banter aside, I'd just like to say this: Award nominations put forward by the great book-buying public - and the BFS Awards are exemplary in this respect - are the only measure by which a publisher - or, indeed, a writer, an editor or an artist - can guage the esteem in which his or her work is held and the entertainment quotient that such work promotes. Of course I want for PS and PS books and stories to win, but I have to say that looking through recent years' shortlists (and this year's is a particularly fine example), it really is enough just to be nominated.
"For instance, in the actual Best Small Press category, we're up against Andy Cox's TTA, Andrew Hook's Elastic, David Howe's Telos and Chris Teague's Pendragon. I'm honoured for PS to be considered an equal of those imprints.
"And whoever picks up the Award on the day, there'll be drinks to be had and old friends (as well as new ones!) to spend some time with. Maybe we'll see you there..."
Looking forward to it immensely, meself...
*Okay, we might be stretching it a bit to claim Les Edwards as a fifth PS-specific nomination, but we do like to think of him as most definitely one of ours. In fact, it's not particularly widely-known, but Les actually resides in a dank cellar here at PS-HQ, where we keep him chained to a radiator with little more than a sketch pad and easel within arm's reach; only occasionally letting him out (suitably electronically tagged, obviously) to do bits and bobs for other publishers... :)
Finished Cover: Postscripts #11
Posted by Darren on July 30th, 2007 at 11:56
Here's the finished cover - with fabulous artwork by Tomislav Tikulin - of the 11th issue of our Postscripts magazine.
This issue will feature brand new fiction from Matthew Rossi, Kealan Patrick Burke, Mikal Trimm, Dave Hoing, Forrest Aguirre, Steve Aylett, Richard Paul Russo, Eric Schaller, David Barnett and Christopher Harman, as well as a guest editorial by Paul Di Filippo.
Postscripts subscribers’ Holiday Chapbook 2007
Posted by Peter Crowther on July 18th, 2007 at 8:56
Here in England, particularly on the east coast (the sea is at the end of our street... sometimes a little nearer than we'd ideally like!), the summer so far has been a washout. And already we drift towards Christmas...
This year, our Postscripts chapbook (which will be sent out, completely free, to everyone who holds a current and fully paid-up Postscripts subscription at the end of the year) will be a special edition of Joe Hill's 'Saved' from the special slipcased edition of his groundbreaking collection Twentieth Century Ghosts.
Joe felt that he'd like to do something for all the fans who weren't able to get a hold of the slipcased edition containing the extra story - and please note that 'Saved' will not be appearing in the trade editions of the book put out in the UK and the USA.
The chapbook will be printed in two states as usual: a signed hardcover sent out to all Postscripts hardcover subscribers, and an unsigned paperback sent out to all our paperback subscribers. There will NOT be any additional copies offered for sale this year, so the only way to get hold of this very special chapbook will be by subscribing to Postscripts!
New Artwork by Edward Miller and Tomislav Tikulin
Posted by Darren on July 4th, 2007 at 14:36
We've received finished artwork from two of our regular (and, quite frankly, ludicrously talented) cover artists recently.
First up, two wonderful new images from Edward Miller. The first piece will grace the cover of Michael Coney's novel I Remember Pallahaxi, and the second will feature on the companion volume, Hello Summer, Goodbye, both of which we'll be publishing later in the year.
And the third image we've had in recently is the cover art for the 11th issue of our Postscripts magazine, which will be out in a few weeks. This one's by rising star Tomislav Tikulin.
You can see many more pieces by these two fantastic artists on www.edwardmiller.co.uk and www.tomtikulin-art.com.
Postscripts: new short story acceptances, June ‘07
Posted by Nick Gevers on July 3rd, 2007 at 13:19
We've recently acquired some fine, exciting stories for Postscripts magazine:
- M.K. Hobson's 'The Warlock and the Man of the Word', a superb, epic blend of Western and fantasy.
- 'Variant' by Steven Utley, a tale of alternate universes to chill the spine.
- The brilliant, intense 'Shad's Mess' by Alex Irvine.
- 'Shem-El-Nessim' by new writer Chris Bell, a dark literary take on the mysteries of Egypt.
For inclusion in Postscripts #16 onwards...
June 2007 News round-up
Posted by Peter Crowther on June 16th, 2007 at 13:00
I know, I know... it's been far too long since we sat down and chatted about what's happening in the wild and wacky world of PS Publishing. But here we are, with a few things to report and craving your forgiveness for the lapse in communications.
First off, Postscripts #10: this 352-page monster has been a huge success and we're hoping that folks will subscribe or at least pick up copies when the mag is its more usual (and more modest) 144 pages.
Its launch - and our appearance - at the World Horror Convention in Toronto in March went down extremely well, as did the first glimpse of the trade edition of Stephen King's The Colorado Kid plus debuts for the first two volumes in our complete short story cycle from Ed Gorman, Steve Erikson's The Lees of Laughter's End and the special 100-copy volume The Collected Stories of Bauchelain and Korbal Broach, Vol #1 (which is sold out already), Conrad Williams's The Scalding Rooms, Richard Parks's Hereafter, And After and Robert Edric's The Mermaids.
My thanks go to Raymond Alexander for representing PS in the bookroom and for handling the launch at the Merril Collection; and to Rodger Turner, who was a constant source of help, advice and good companionship throughout the whole event.
There have been a few glitches with Postscripts #10, though only because of my scatterbrained forgetting to send the list for slipcased copies down to the mailing house. That's all done now and I think we're pretty much there and everyone should now have - or soon will have - whatever it was that they ordered. As of right now, the slipcased and PPC semi-Hardcover signed editions are sold out and the paperback edition is running very low. We may decide to do a reprint and we may not - watch this space.
All of you people who ordered - and paid for! - copies of The Colorado Kid deserve medals for your patience and forebearance as the original publication date of late March drifted into April, and then into May and here we are in June with nary a sign of the darned thing. Well, no... that's not true. We just received word that copies of all editions will be at the mailing house on Tuesday 19th June and we're hoping to get all the orders sent out by the end of the month (the month of June that is, unbelievers!)... or as close to it as jazz.
Also coming up are Jack Dann's Promised Land and Philip José Farmer and Danny Adams's The City Beyond Play, both available next month, plus Lucius Shepard's Dagger Key and Other Stories. We're a little behind where we'd ideally like to be on Lucius's book but it's for a very understandable reason: China Miéville, who's doing the Introduction, is presently spending as much time as possible with his mother, who's very seriously ill. I'm sure you'll all join with us in sending your thoughts and best wishes to China and his mum. (We have managed to produce a special limited paperback edition - sans Intro, of course - of the book for ReaderCon... just 50 copies, so it'll be a case of first come, first served at the event.)
We must also ask you to spare a thought for Michael and Jeri Bishop on the loss of their son, Jamie... and to Jamie's widow, Stefanie. Jamie was killed by the gunman at Virginia Tech in April - one more senseless slaying in a world that seems filled to bursting with them. I can only guess as to how that loss must feel. (For those who don't know, Jamie was a marvellous artist and designer... as can be seen from his work on the cover of his dad Mike's book of essays A Reverie for Mister Ray that PS put out a couple of years back.)
Okay, other stuff: Harlan Ellison has just finished signing the tip sheets for our anniversary edition of Ellison Wonderland and Bob Silverberg is, even as we speak, writing the Introduction with one hand and signing HIS tip sheets with the other. We'll soon be sending sheets out to Lawrence Block and his Introducer, Spider Robinson for Random Walk, and we've just got back in the edited files for Dandelion Wine and Summer Morning, Summer Night (the companion book to the two-volume deluxe slipcased edition).
Also just finished are the sheets for Eric Brown's Starship Summer (by the way, have you read Eric's new novel from Solaris Books, HELIX? It's a gem) and Justice & Wilbanks's Dead Earth: The Green Dawn.
New purchases include new novellas from Steven Erikson (Revolvo, a 30,000-word everyday tale of octopids, neanderthals and cigarettes) Steve Baxter (Starfall), Beth Bernobich (Ars Memoriae) and Eric Brown (Gilbert and Edgar on Mars) and novels from Robert Wexler (The Painting and the City), John Gribbin (Time Switch) and, from Ian Cameron Esselmont, the limited edition of the 260,000-word follow-up novel to Night of Knives entitled Return of the Crimson Guard.
We've also bought Darkness on the Edge, edited by Harrison Howe; a new anthology of dark tales inspired by the music of Bruce Springsteen and featuring work (bought so far!) by Lee Thomas, Michael A. Arnzen, Lorne Dixon, Gerard Houarner, Tom Piccirilli and Elizabeth Massie.
There are other things to tell you about but this should do it for now. The new website design is imminent now so we'll leave a few things - and a couple of special announcements - for that.
It's been good chatting with you - we'll do it again soon, Meanwhile, look after each other... and happy reading!
Pete
Paul DiFilippo on Postscripts #10
Posted by Darren on June 2nd, 2007 at 9:58
Over on the Inferior 4+1 blog, author Paul Di Filippo had some very nice things to say about the latest, 10th issue of our Postscripts magazine.
Alas though, the version of Postscripts #10 that Paul singles out as being particularly worthy of praise - the $25.00 PPC semi-Hardcover edition - is actually completely sold out here at PS Towers.
You could always try to hunt down a dealer in collectable editions, or try to find a second-hand copy, but it might cost you a wrist and an ankle at the very least; we saw the PPC edition offered for £200 on eBay.co.uk recently... and that's not even the slipcased copy!
We do have plenty of copies of the extremely reasonable (nay, let's be honest, insanely good value-for-money) £12.00 PPC semi-Hardcover edition in stock, although those are selling fast...
Our suggested remedy for the missing-out-on-Postscripts blues would be to take out a Subscription, at the earliest opportunity!
