Someone passed this link on to me via delicious. Does anyone know anything about Beneath Ceaseless Skies? What’s their operating model? Looks interesting, content-wise, and there’s some nice art featured. I’m not familiar with the editor, however.
Hi! My name is Jeremiah Tolbert, but you can call me Jeremy. I am a fantasy and science fiction writer, photographer, and web designer living in Northern Colorado. I am currently starting a new job and cannot take freelance work at this time. Drop me a line if you have any questions or comments. I love hearing from new people and I now have a lot more time to chat.
My story from Polyphony 4, and one of my earliest successful attempts at the short story (although your definition of success may vary from mine in this case), is now live as a podcast on PodCastle. You can give it a listen over on the PodCastle site, but if you’re into fantasy, you should subscribe [...]
My story from the excellent anthology Seeds of Change (edited by the Anthology God, formerly known here as the Slush God, John Joseph Adams) has gone live over at Escape Pod. This is a story that was published to mixed reviews. But I am astounded by the job that Philippa Ballantine did here. Her reading [...]
Hi Folks. After a ton of work on the part of myself, Sarah, and my sound engineer and good friend Nate Periat, we’ve finished and posted our first Dr. Roundbottom Field Sounds podcast. It’s only 5 minutes long, so don’t hesitate to just go to the site and hit play. Please let me know what [...]
Do you remember that Disney CG film Dinosaurs? It’s original concept involved a feature length movie with animals that only emoted, and never spoke. Having always been a big fan of computer animation, I was excited at the early rumors of the film. Unfortunately, Disney execs got involved and the result was the talky-travesty that [...]
I forget where I got this, but I think that it’s the level of quality I’d like to see in more book trailers online:
Having Tim Curry as a narrator is probably outside of the range of what we can afford as SF/F writers, but still. Let’s go over what makes this awesome:
Tight pacing. 2 minutes [...]

A friend of mine says he’s a 2005 Odyssey grad, and she was impressed with both his writing ability and his insightful comments on the stories of others. Beyond that I don’t know anything besides what’s on the site.

Hi Jerermiah,
I’m Scott H. Andrews, the guy behind _Beneath Ceaseless Skies_. You might remember my story “Excision” in Ann VanderMeer’s first issue of _Weird Tales_. Our operating model is the _Strange Horizons_ model, but we do have enough initial anonymous donors lined up to power us through the first year.
I got a lot of interested comments at ReaderCon yesterday, so I’m very excited to see word starting to spread. Thanks for mentioning it here.
