Aeon Speculative Fiction calls it quits

By Ian Randal Strock

Effective immediately, electronic magazine Aeon Speculative Fiction is "suspending publication." Editors Bridget and Marti McKenna announced on the magazine's web site that "After four years of publication, Aeon Speculative Fiction, the quarterly electronic magazine published by Quintamid Publishing Inc., is suspending publication effective immediately. All submissions are being returned, and authors of the brilliant stories currently in inventory will have the option to be published in The End of an Aeon anthology, to be released in 2009. Editors Bridget and Marti McKenna would like to thank the SF community for making the last four years far more interesting for us and our readers than they otherwise would have been."

We detailed issue #14 of the magazine in this article. We missed the preview of issue #15, but it doesn't appear to have actually reached publication. Contents of that final issue were to have been:
"Carapans: Exclusive Photos of Earth's Enigmatic 'Aliens'": a photo essay by Terry Bisson and Rosalie Winard
"The True Story of Merganther's Run" by David D. Levine
"Twilight at the Change House" by Jaine Fenn
"Black Swan, White Swan" by Eugie Foster
"Off-Season at Jay Lake" by Michael Hiebert
"apple: not a fairy tale" by Laura Anne Gilman
"Patriot Girls" by Amy Sisson
