Welcome to the Thoughtcrime Experiments anthology.
Our aim was to find mind-breakingly good science fiction/fantasy
stories that other editors had rejected, and release them into the
commons for readers to enjoy. My co-editor Leonard writes extensively
on our methodology and aims in Appendix A, but the short version is:
we did it. Here it is.
There isn’t a theme, really, just “what we like.” It turns out that we
like political satire and family drama and detective thrillers and fables
and fable deconstructions and the mysteries of debugging. It’s all good
stuff and we hope you like it.
We received many awesome submissions. You’re just seeing a
fraction of them because we couldn’t publish them all. Appendix A is a
step-by-step guide showing you how you can do it too, with a few
thousand dollars and some sweat.
This is now your anthology. Everything’s licensed under the Creative
Commons BY-NC-SA license: Attribution-Noncommercial-Sharealike.
You can remix the art, the fiction, and even this introduction. If you do
cool things with Thoughtcrime Experiments, please let us know so we
can rejoice.
Or just let us know if the anthology rocks and you loved reading it.
That’s what we’re going for.
