It is with more than a little regret that I need to tell you that Sue Clennell, our regular "E-Scapes" columnist since September 2005, has decided to focus on her own fiction writing instead of that of others.

This regret, is of course, tempered by the fact that Sue has done a wonderful reviewing job for thirty-three issues — and she has done this for us here at AntiSF without remuneration or reward.

So, I offer a heartfelt thanks to Sue — for her persistence, dedication, and words. The magazine would not have been the same without "E-Scapes". We're all going to miss it.

And no, alas, the column won't continue without Sue. "E-Scapes" finishes with this issue.

But let's speculate. Is it possible that another reviewer is about to, "Go Critical"?

Can't wait for the supernova.

Ooroo for now,

Nuke.

Sometimes, more is less. Ain't that the case with some of our fifty-worders?

Of course, I don't expect you all to agree with me. But sometimes the constraints of form force us to be more creative with what we have available to us. Adversity delivers invention.

And, if you do agree, then perhaps we've found the ideal story-telling form for display on those tiny mobile telephone screens...

Anybody tried it?

Ooroo for now,

Nuke
