💚💫 Issue Eight has landed! 💫💚

This one includes a larger-than-usual number of ghosts and doubles, and the usual dizzying range of emotions and experiences.

If you're ready for a rollercoaster ride through our inner lives, check out the issue now: inner-worlds.ghost.io/issue-eight-...

#SFF #Horror
Inner Worlds cover with acid green masthead and artwork showing a part of a Black person's face in dark blue with a glitchy texture, surrounded by flame like shapes like heatvision hotspots, with green and yellow edges and bright scarlet centres. The person's gaze is very intense, and seems hurt, wary, angry.

Elena's story was one of three chosen from the open submission call I ran, and it gave me chills. Within seconds I knew I wanted it in my anthology!!

Hopefully we'll get to work together again in the future!

General submission open on Monday 22 September. We are looking for speculative fiction 5000 words and under. Our remit is very broadly fun, but don't self-reject - a truly superb story offers an enjoyment of it's own.

Deliverance by @esichr.bsky.social a story about the end times, of heaven coming down from it's hiding place in the moon, and how terrible and sordid that is. translunartravelerslounge.com/2025/08/15/d...
Sometimes I try to imagine what she would say if she knew that the ‘blessed day’ would involve airborne gold spores eating through the throats of the elderly, or that pearly gates the size of semi-trailer trucks would spin across states with the fury of tornadoes, or that apples would stop rotting, no matter where you buried them.

Tonight the sky is obfuscated; ornery, perhaps, at the increased amount of observation it’s received over the past eighteen months. The gold triangle is still visible, hovering above the Earth like breath on frosted glass. I wonder if any of my friends across the country are seeing the same view and sending end-of-the-world wishes towards me.

@augursociety.bsky.social if an author submits 2 stories to augur during an open call but has to withdraw one, can said author submit another story or is the cap 2 submissions total regardless of withdrawal?

raum pushes back against the sanitized polite, pliable, and otherwise "perfect" trans ideal deemed acceptable by society—if, and when, they are accepted at all—with poems that highlight the righteous, the cruel, and the ugly; these are the real truths we’re dying to say.

text: 
Defiantly calling to attention ordinary and extraordinary transphobia, this collection bares its teeth at the world and refuses to take “no” for an answer. [raum's] succinct and biting language gives their anger a beautiful clarity that resonates beside their unending resolve for embodying trans joy.

struggling not to dnf this book because the cool concept is absolutely destroyed by the truly terrible and sloppy writing quality and i haven't read a worse main character since tender is the flesh

big thanks to @khoreo.bsky.social (and to @danaiwrites.bsky.social in particular) for fine-tuning this story & giving it a home.
