Schlock!

Don't miss the March 2026 edition (volume 19, issue 14) of Schlock! (the webzine for science fiction, fantasy and horror). 

"Why not?" you ask.

Because it contains a brand new SF short story by J.S. Watts, Oversight, in which a billionaire's vanity space flight does not turn out as expected.
