So what is this site, anyway?

• To most visitors, Transference is an online 'zine focusing on science fiction and fantasy (collectively known as speculative fiction). Each issue (we'll try to release one every two months) carries several fresh new short stories, as well as non-fiction in the form of book reviews, editorials, and tutorials. You can browse the latest issue from the cover page, or view everything we have to offer from the fiction and non-fiction sections.
• There's more on this site than appears in the issues: Each writer in Transference has an Oeuvre, which contains articles that couldn't be included in the 'zine, perhaps because they've been posted on other sites, or simply don't belong to the appropriate genre. Regardless, they're good work, and if you take the time to explore you won't be disappointed.
• Our discussion board caters to those who enjoy sci-fi and fantasy, on both sides of the pen. In these fora, you can debate favourite books, receive advice and criticism on your latest prose, get embroiled in heated metaphysical argument, and much else besides.

That's all you need to know to start reading the barrelful of writing on this site. Go ahead and browse the current issue.

Transference.org has a lot more going on that that, however: there's a [insert cool living-thing metaphor here] of activity going on beneath the skin, unseen by regular readers. Transference is more than just a gallery where a bunch of strangers hang their work -- it is a tightly-knit community of writers, reviewers and editors; symbiants who make each issue of the 'zine the best it can be (and have a whole lot of fun doing it). If you want to know more, if you want to be a part of it, and if you have a passion for science fiction and fantasy, read on!

Both cruise and Eldritch are your contacts for writer, reviewer or editor-ship within Transference. Send them examples of your work, or post your stories in our writing class forum. If we like what we read, you will be added to our growing roster of members.
