Warp and Weave is a literary journal that publishes specifically speculative fiction and speculative line art. Within speculative fiction are a host of genres including; science fiction, fantasy, role-playing, space fiction, some graphic novels, Celtic studies, and mythic archetypal fiction. Warp and Weave faculty advisor Deb Thornton said, "We hope to get a lot of submissions and we're excited to give a voice to the speculative fiction community." Speculative fiction is a genre that many people are drawn to for its blending of left and right brain qualities. "There are a lot of teenies." Thornton said, "and computer science buffs, and people interested in the life and physical sciences who like to read speculative fiction and write their own speculative fiction, because it often blends science and creative writing." The submission deadline is October 14 at 5 p.m., and the 4th biannual edition will be available for purchase mid November. Those interested may drop off their submissions in LA 114, or email them to warp_and_weave@yahoo. com. For more information contact Deb Thornton at the above email address or 8638573.
