This is an extremely difficult thing to write and compile. Our dear friend Jennifer Adams Kelley passed away on February 26, 2019, after a brief battle with cancer. The Thomas family first met Jennifer nearly 20 years ago at a Doctor Who convention—the very first Chicago TARDIS, in fact. She was the very heart of […]

When I was growing up in Miami, my late mother, Patricia Stephens Due, sat down with me on Saturdays to watch “Creature Features”—old Universal film classics like Dracula, The Mummy, and The Mole People. The first deep scare I remember is the end of the 1958 version of The Fly, when the scientist/fly caught in […]
In the summer of 2018, tennis great Serena Williams had a dispute with the French Open about an outfit she’d had specifically designed to help fight the formation of blood clots—a problem she personally has had postpartum but also one that tends to affect the postpartum population more in Black communities than in white or […]
I fell in love with Star Wars at the library. The films had been at the edge of my consciousness for most of my childhood—how could I avoid them? The special editions were re-released in theaters the year I turned seven; though I did not see them then, my sister had plenty of action figures […]

Instead of partaking in spring cleaning, my partner and I clean house in the winter because that’s when we have the most free time. I bring this up for two reasons: 1) I’m terribly behind on it because I am a serial procrastinator (oops), and 2) she unearthed one of my writing notebooks from high […]
I hear them outside my office before I see them: footsteps, then voices, two at minimum, but sometimes more. I lean in closer to my desk, listening to their feet shuffle. They always travel in packs. When they start talking three feet short of the threshold, it goes something like this: “I think she’s in […]

In the memoir I. Asimov, which was published shortly after his death, Isaac Asimov calls John W. Campbell, Jr. “the most powerful force in science fiction ever.” A quarter of a century after he wrote these words, no other contender has emerged to seriously dispute that claim.
