Jennifer Konieczny, Editorial Assistant
Jennifer Konieczny was born in the auspicious year of Return of the Jedi, the year in which the stars aligned to ensure that she would consistently return to speculative fiction. While abroad to research fourteenth-century Latin legal texts and woefully unable to carry months-worth of books, she discovered online speculative fiction. Since then she has volunteered as a slush reader, author interviewer, and editorial assistant at Fantasy. In addition to reading some of the coolest fantasy short fiction, she continues to peruse Latin law texts and inflicts her medieval-studies self on her students. Luddite that she is, she has no website of her own, but if you’d like to contact her, she can be reached at: jennifer.konieczny@gmail.com.
Is this an ebook? If so, how can it possibly be “sold out”? It’s not as though the data actually costs anything to duplicate and send to anybody who wants to pay for it. I will be aghast if this is fake scarcity, actually turning potential customers away.
SOLD OUT means that this magazine isn’t published anymore. It says so at the top of the post. Fantasy was absorbed into Lightspeed by the publisher as of January 2012, so we are no longer selling subscriptions to it. Eventually we’ll remove this post completely.
Ah, I didn’t see that info at the top and couldn’t make sense of the words “sold out” in this context, but I get it now. Thank you
