Welcome to the first of the 2020 issues of Future SF. In this issue we feature original fiction from the Czech Republic, Catalonia, and Russia, as well as a reprint by the inimitable Ken Liu. We also review Ken’s translation of Vagabonds by the Hugo-winner Hao Jingfang, and interview the incoming CEO of Heavy Metal.
2020 is the year we hope to build the magazine up. Having lost our funding in late 2019, we’ve launched a Patreon campaign. As of this writing, we’re generating about 20% of the revenue we need in order to break even at our current volume of stories and articles. But we’ve only just begun – we’ve committed the money and resources to keep the magazine going through the end of the year. If you enjoy the content we’re publishing, please consider subscribing via Patreon. Ultimately, a strong subscription base is what it’ll take to keep the magazine healthy and to continue amplifying the voices from around the globe.

Happy reading!
