Planet Scumm #11: Snake Eyes (Summer 2021)

Inside, you’ll find stories that wind a serpentine course through the realm between science fiction and fantasy. “Snake Eyes”was thoughtfully curated by Guest-Editor-in-Chief and Scummalum / Stoker Award Winner Hailey Piper (The Worm and His Kings, Unfortunate Elements of My Anatomy), joined by a guest editorial team of illustrator Maura McGonagle (WITCH comic), Clare Fuller (Saving Daylight Magazine), and our own creative director, Alyssa Alarcón Santo.

We’re proud to present the stories collected here to you, the reader, and hope that we can continue to highlight voices that have been traditionally underrepresented in science fiction and speculative fiction.

• A Defiance of Violins by Ana Gardner

• The Hollow Stars in Heaven by Avery Kit Malone

• Hivemind by LC von Hessen

• The Secret of Theta Pi by Stephanie Gray

• The Long Sleep by Diana Fenves
