Penumbra Issue Three & Subscription Challenge

Penumbra Issue Three & Subscription Challenge

Penumbra's third issue, the extra special December issue, has just been released. Inside you will find wonderful stories centered around the theme of travel, stories that take you beyond the usual definition of the word and explore all its possibilities. But that's not all; this issue is full of surprises and new content.

What makes this issue so special?

Well, this issue was organized by Musa's lovely team of interns(I happen to be one), with the supervision of our Editor-in-Chief and some help and input from cover artist Lisa Dovichi. Over the course of the month we looked for ways to make this issue shine, to stand out from what we've done before. Our need to distinguish ourselves as a team from the regular Penumbra team—who are, by the way, just as awesome as we are—led to the addition of two non-fiction features, an interview with Homer Eon Flint's granddaughter Vella Munn and an article on Krampus, the evil anti-Santa.

It's been both an honour and an excitement to work on this issue of Penumbra and to be part of such a wonderful team. I am proud to say that I am an intern with Musa Publishing, and on a whole other level, I'm proud to claim my part in creating this issue of Penumbra.

What is the Subscription Challenge?

You might have noticed that the title of this post is 'Penumbra Issue Three&Subscription Challenge', and you're probably wondering what the subscription challenge is.

Well, as a new eMagazine, Penumbra is just beginning to build its subscriber base. Our lovely editor-in-Chief came to us while we were working on the December issue of this magazine and gave us a challenge to get 500 subscribers for this wonderful eMagazine.

Why subscribe to Penumbra? Well, a one year subscription will feed you with great stories from the authors you love until this time next year, and at the low price of $36.00 for the whole year, that's a great thing. These stories will make you—or any speculative fiction reader on your Christmas list—a happier person for the whole year. You get to support the authors you love and read the stories you love, all for $36.00.

But that's not all. Until January first, we are offering the first two issues of the magazine free with your one year subscription. Consider it our way of saying thank you for having faith in our small new eMag.

You can get your subscription here: Penumbra Subscription.
