Parallel Worlds – Interview with Peter
Have you noticed Parallel Worlds in our blogroll under Magazines? If so, you hopefully clicked on it, and would have been rewarded with the great website for Parallel Worlds magazine “The best of escapism, science fiction and fantasy media today”. If you haven’t checked it out yet, you really should. Parallel Worlds is a very high quality magazine that is available in print (very glossy!) or as a pdf and as a podcast.
Issue 5, which came out in January, was packed with interesting articles, reviews, and original fiction. One of those articles was an interview by Allen Stroud of our very own Peter, talking about Elsewhen Press, our books and authors, covers, the publishing process, and conventions – illustrated with some of our covers too. Apparently we’re a mainstay of the science fiction, fantasy and horror independent publishing community. Yay us!
You can buy the printed copy of Parallel Worlds through some specialist bookshops (including Forbidden Planet and Orc’s Nest). Or you can become a Patreon patron and get each copy as soon as it is published. Not long after each issue comes out, a podcast version becomes available on the Parallel Worlds website so you can hear the articles being read to you (although you obviously miss out on the pictures!). When the next issue comes out the previous issue becomes available as a freely downloadable pdf from their website.
So you have no excuse for not reading Peter’s interview!
Oddball, enjoyable and original – an interview with Mike French at the Alternative Magazine Online
Mike French was recently interviewed for the Alternative Magazine Online by Marty Mulrooney. Although it was predominantly to talk about Mike’s new book, Fictional Alignment the sequel to An Android Awakes, they covered a few other topics too (like house extensions, birthdays, and Blade Runner 2049). All in all an entertaining and informative interview, with a sneaky teaser at the end.
Oh, and “Oddball, enjoyable and original” was Marty’s description of Fictional Alignment not Mike. But there again…

Tej Turner interviewed on RisingShadow
On the RisingShadow website, Seregil of Rhiminee has posted an interview with Tej Turner author of The Janus Cycle and Dinnusos Rises.
Tej talks about some of his experiences and influences when he was growing up, that have left their mark on him and his fiction; he illuminates some of the motivation behind his latest book Dinnusos Rises; he talks about his deliberate structuring of both books to enable him to encompass diversity more effectively; and he tells us a little bit about what else he is planning to do.
If you enjoyed The Janus Cycle, then this interview should make you even more keen to read Dinnusos Rises, which is already available for pre-order on most eBook platforms (see here for details). If you haven’t read any of Tej’s work yet, but are a fan of classic urban fantasy or magical realism then this interview should convince you to give Tej’s books a place on your bookshelf (real or digital).
Either way, you should read the interview (click here to read it on RisingShadow) for an enriching experience!
