Tangent Online has been reviewing short science fiction and fantasy for nearly three decades. Each year, they release a recommended reading list of new short fiction, and their 2019 Recommended Reading List includes two stories from Trace the Stars! “Knowing Me”, by Eric G. Swedin and “Cycle 335” by Beth Buck. Congratulations to the two of you! We’re glad to see your stories getting noticed. There are so many amazing stories on the list, and we are very proud to have these two stories there, too. Thanks to Victoria Silverwolf for reviewing the anthology for Tangent, and to Dave Truesdale…
Hemelein Publications has a lot going on in 2019. Follow us on Facebook to keep updated!

It’s in the final proofing stages right now. There will be a launch event at LTUE on February 14, 2019, so watch here for more details…
Thank you to everyone who submitted stories to be considered for the A Dragon and Her Girl anthology. The call for submissions is now closed. Our next step is reviewing the submissions to determine which stories will be collected in the anthology. We’re looking forward to reading all of the submitted stories. The decisions will be made by the end of January 2019, and those who submitted stories should receive email notification by that time. Your support of the mission of Life, the Universe, & Everything is greatly appreciated. We look forward to seeing you at the launch event for…
Next Friday and Saturday, September 7-8, 2018, at FanX in Salt Lake City, Utah, Joe Monson (one of the editors of Trace the Stars) will have a limited number of bookmarks at the Bard’s Tower booth. See his post for more details. Less than six months until the release!
It’s been great fun reading all of the submissions since issuing the call in November 2017. There were so many excellent entries that it was hard to select the ones that worked best for this space opera and hard science fiction anthology. We appreciate all of the authors who submitted stories for consideration to show their support of the mission of Life, the Universe, & Everything to help educate and hone new and existing writers. All proceeds from this anthology go to support the mission of LTUE to allow students to attend for a greatly discounted price. Submissions are now…

Thank you to everyone who came to the LTUE Benefit Anthology Preview last night at Life, the Universe, & Everything. Great cookies were enjoyed by all. This is a preview of the cover art for the anthology. Keep in mind that the cover is not finalized yet, so there may be changes to it before it’s released. Here’s a list of the authors who are appearing in the anthology. There will be a few more, too, as the space in the anthology isn’t completely used up yet: (listed alphabetically) Kevin J. Anderson Beth Buck Jaleta Clegg David Farland Nancy Fulda…
The first batch of acceptances (and rejections) has been sent out for the Trace the Stars anthology. We are planning to have the anthology be around 100,000 words, and right now we are at about 78,000. If you have not yet submitted, please do so as soon as possible. While the submission period is open until July this year, it looks like that might have been too long a time as we have received so many submissions already. We will continue to consider submissions through the end of the submission period, but your story is more likely to be included…
During the Life, the Universe, & Everything symposium in February, we are having a preview reception. We will reveal the cover for the first benefit anthology, Trace the Stars, and have information regarding planned future benefit anthologies. Date: Saturday, February 17, 2018 Time: 6:00pm Venue: Provo Marriott Hotel and Conference Center Address: 101 W 100 N, Provo, UT 84601 Room: Boardroom (Cross posted from the LTUE Press site.)
