Mothers Who Have Come and Gone
If you’re a fan of Sybil’s Garage you may have noticed that the names of Altered Fluid members tend to crop up in association with the zine. That’s because most of us, at one time or another, have done duty in the editorial department and/or contributed non-fiction. It’s the secret way SG gets to be so fabulous — slave loving volunteer labor. Somehow I escaped from the mines, thus granting me the ability to actually submit stories, the result of which is that I am going to be in the fabulous issue #6 along with many other talented writers, some of whom are also my friends.
I told you that story so I could tell you this one:
Sybil’s Garage 6 is due out in a couple of weeks, and as a special preview editor Matt Kressel put one of the offerings online for Mother’s Day. The story: Elan Vital. The author: me. Go read and then watch the Senses Five website every second of every day until the zine comes out, then buy it. Seriously, it is going to be fabulous. All the hard working members of Altered Fluid told me so.

Altered Fluid is a speculative fiction writing group based in Manhattan. We have been meeting bi-monthly or more often since 2001.
