Happy Holidays to everyone from the Magespace! We hope your holiday season is wonderful and your new year is fantastic. Remember: only 11 more years to the Awakening! This week:

  • The next part of Old Ghosts.

  • The fiction pages have been redesigned. We now have the Rat Fiction page and the Contest Fiction page, both reachable off the main Fiction page. You'll find more Short Story contest entries on the Contest page, and...

  • The Magespace 1999 Christmas Story is up. It's short, it's schmaltzy...but hey, it's Christmas!

  • The next part of Joint Venture is up on Shapcano's site at last!

  • Judging is progressing for the Short Story Contest. Winners should be announced in 2-3 weeks. (Yes, it's still 2-3 weeks. I took this week off to get the third book in the Crossfire/Inner Demons trilogy jump-started, which means I haven't done much of anything else.

Slowly we're getting back on track. This week:

09.08.99

We blew it last week, didn't we? (Although judging from the number of notes I got (none), I wonder if anybody noticed! :) ) Anyway, we're back. The updates are going to be a bit sparse for awhile (my current project is to write my next part of Joint Venture which is already overdue) but we'll put something up each week. This time:

  • Part 1 of a "blast from the past" story from 1993, Different Worlds Contest. This one's old and a bit odd, but it's only the second SR story I ever wrote. It was kind of fun.

  • Please sign our Guestbook let us know what you think. (Look for the Guestbook link below).

  • A new Magespace Poll of the Week (see below). For previous poll results, see the Feedback page.

09.01.99

There was no update for 9/1/99. 08.25.99

We here at the Magespace have to apologize for yet another week. The truth is, moving (especially when you own as much basically useless junk as we do) is a much bigger effort than we remembered, leaving us with little time for anything else. With luck the updates will be back to normal next week, but there might be one more week's delay. This week:

  • Another entry from the Le Bad Shadowrun Contest. Thanks to Dragonscroll, sponsor of the contest, and congratulations to the winner! The second annual Magespace Short Story Contest should be coming along in the next couple weeks.

  • Please sign our Guestbook let us know what you think. (Look for the Guestbook link below).

  • Chapter Fifty-Seven of Inner Demons. This is it - the whole thing is done! Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Author's Notes are up too.

  • Another entry from the Le Bad Shadowrun Contest. Thanks to Dragonscroll, sponsor of the contest, and congratulations to the winner! Look for the second annual Magespace Short Story Contest starting up in the next two or three weeks.
