New Kid in Town: Laser & Sword Magazine

~posted by Andrea Graham~

The following is an announcement from Laser and Sword Magazine, of which I am an assistant editor, and is not necessarily an endorsement by this blog:

Issue 1 of Laser and Sword Is Out in its E-edition. Once we receive our final version of the cover art from our fabulous illustrator, Melinda Reynolds, a print edition will be available as well.

In this month’s issue:

  • Earth’s greatest hero, The Sword, seeks to unite all of Earth’s heroes, but will personal rivalries break the Guild of Heroes apart before its first mission? And can the Sword’s chief ally be trusted?
  • A hard luck gang leader from Boise, Idaho gets a second chance in the Imperial Military. Will he thrive in the military or find himself in a hangman’s noose?

Laser and Sword Magazine revives the lost art of serial short fiction with exciting results!

This quarter’s e-Edition is FREE because we’re confident that after this first issue, you’ll want to see what’s the next! Subscribe to our free e-mail list and we’ll keep your abreast on upcoming projects and issues, providing you exclusive info at no charge.

So what do you have to lose? Download this week’s issue, read it, let us know what you think. Click here to get your free copy today.


Note Laser & Sword is also sponsoring the Old Time Radio Superman Show podcast.

And writers will be interested to learn this is a paying market. Primarily, the magazine is looking for strong action heroes, super or otherwise, with a preference for speculative fiction. Solid Christian/biblical world view a must. Payout is currently advertised as $10 per story. Will consider reprints. This is not a juvenile market, but looks at potential for cross-over.
