Medicine shows (especially intergalactic medicine shows) have a lot of freaks. Over the coming weeks, months, and years, this blog will introduce you to a few of them.

IGMS Issue 36 cover teaser
Couldn't resist (not that anybody said I really ought to)...
Thanks for your comment. You're absolutely right in that the PR has been bad lately, but disconnecting isn't an option. Orson Scott Card is the publisher. But his views on gay marriage have nothing to do with this magazine, which is for writers and readers of short speculative fiction. We've published stories with gay characters and we've published stories by gay authors. I am the editor of the magazine and I fully support the equality of ALL people, including their right to marry. Everyone, no exceptions. So Orson and I agree to disagree on that subject, and I continue in my efforts to put out the best magazine I can.
Um... I know IGMS is connected to OSC but I think its time to make a disconnection from the public relation disaster that is Orson Scott Card...
