The theme of the first issue is The Next Phase in Human Evolution.
The world is changing. While Science fiction has often been maligned for its stylistic limitations and non-prestigious subculture, there is little doubt that many of the people shaping these changes have been raised on a diet of science fiction, taking ideas from the page and screen into our present and future.
Edited by James Hedges & Rebecca Bligh, Living in The Future is a new journal of Science Fiction and future-writing, to include fiction, essays, poetry and visual art. Themed issues will explore ideas around the genre of science fiction, science-fiction-like phenomena emerging in the contemporary world, and their convergence.
The call for submissions for the second issue of Living in The Future, with the theme: APOCALYPSE, is now open, and closes on March 10th see website: http://www.litfmag.net/issue-2/.
