The GEnie SFRT is the most active SF online meeting area in the world's growing electronic noosphere. Its several thousand members, including fans, writers, editors and scholars, log onto the system daily from Germany to Japan and South America to Canada. Nearly 200 members of the Science Fiction Writers of America are online with GEnie. For $4.95 a month, you can have unlimited "non-primetime" access to GEnie's "basic services" from 6 pm at night to 8 am the following morning, including the SFRT bulletin boards. GEnie will accommodate all types of computers, be they IBMs, IBM clones, Apples, Ataris or old CPM systems. Dialing into a "local node" (computer equipment in your local area ac­ cessed with your modem by dialing a local phone number), you have im­ mediate access to an international SF community with no long distance charges. GEnie has more local nodes worldwide than any other online ser­ vice and unlimited electronic mail is included in GEnie's basic services. If you get your friends online, you'll likely cut your postage and phone bills significantly. The SFRT Bulletin Board is currently divided into 47 "categories" (read "topics") of discussion, and categories are themselves divided into many "topics" (read "subtopics"). Among the categories are three for the discus­ sion of authors (with topic areas for nearly 150 authors), writer's workshops, categories for the consideration of specific books, SF film, SF television and radio, non-network SF television and radio, and music and art in SF. In category 3, "The Written Word - Concepts and Theory," some of the 27 topics include "Religious Faith in SF and Fantasy,"

    Pulp-related books and periodicals available from Mike Chomko for May and June 2019 Dianne and I had a wonderful time in Chicago, attending the Windy City Pulp & Paper Convention in April. It’s a fine show that you should try to attend. Upcoming conventions include Robert E. Howard Days in Cross Plains, Texas on June 7 – 8, and the Edgar Rice Burroughs Chain of Friendship, planned for the weekend of June 13 – 15. It will take place in Oakbrook, Illinois. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like there will be a spring edition of Ray Walsh’s Classicon. Currently, William Patrick Maynard and I are writing about the programming that will be featured at PulpFest 2019. We’ll be posting about the panels and presentations through June 10. On June 17, we’ll write about this year’s author signings, something new we’re planning for the convention. Check things out at www.pulpfest.com. Laurie Powers biography of LOVE STORY MAGAZINE editor Daisy Bacon is currently scheduled for release around the end of 2019. I will be carrying this book. It’s entitled QUEEN OF THE PULPS. Please reserve your copy today. Recently, I was contacted about carrying the Armchair Fiction line of books. I’ve contacted the publisher and will certainly be able to stock their books. Founded in 2011, they are dedicated to the restoration of classic genre fiction. Their forté is early science fiction, but they also publish mystery, horror, and westerns. They have a strong line of lost race novels. Their books are illustrated with art from the pulps and such.

I stared quizzically at the cover and noticed it was titled, Labyrinth. For a moment I was confused as to why my mother would bother buying me some strange, fantasy movie from the eighties, but suddenly, it clicked. I had grown up watching this film; in fact I had been so obsessed with it that every time we went to our local movie rental store I would beg my mom to rent it for a couple of nights.

It examines a range of cultural materials from literature, film, and architecture, to 9/11 in the media. The section discusses, through a fusion of cultural and political thought, how the War on Terror became the inevitable continuation of the binary rhetoric of good and evil perpetuated since 9/11.
