Wyrms & Wormholes
Riding off into the Sunset
This will (presumably) be our last issue of editing Star*Line; it was great to be back in the saddle again, however briefly. And the marvelous submissions ensure that it’s always a great ride! Thanks to our advertisers in this issue who support SFPA and its awards.
Your editor has just had her second dose of Covid-19 vaccine! Soon everyone will be assimilated … er, vaccinated (we hope). Bring on the parties, live readings and SF conventions!
