[basfa-list] Baen’s Astounding Stories

[Rffdyr]

New York Times bestselling author David Brin posts:  Long time editor, publisher and sci fi impresario Jim Baen has decided to try the experiment of launching a major online science fiction magazine, to see if that might provide an avenue to circumvent the factors that have been pretty much crushing the life out of short fiction in SF for several decades now. The title of the magazine will be Baen’s Astounding Stories.   He asked Eric Flint to be  the editor of the magazine, along with David Drake and Sarah Hoyt. A goal is to recreate the kind of magazines that /Astounding/Analog /and /Galaxy /were in the 40s, 50s and 60s.  Watch for it to come out with a splash in June!  Do help spread the word.
