Free Speculative Fiction Online
by
Marian, on the Asimov’s Forum, pointed out this handy website: Free Speculative Fiction Online. As the name implies, this is a portal to the various SF stories you can find online for free (all legit, no copyright-pirated stuff). You can sort through the stories by author, awards won, or by magazine. What piqued my interest was the archive of F&SF stories. Looks like most of these are reprinted on SCI FICTION or Infinity Plus, so they’re not all obscure links, but there are a few stories on author websites that you might not otherwise have been aware of. Plus, it’s kind of nice to see all these F&SF stories in one place, so that you can get your friends to read some stories from F&SF, even if they’re too cheap or lazy to go buy a copy. Of course, once we’ve got them hooked, surely they’ll run right out and subscribe so they can get their next fix.
