9798268619614: The Colored Lens: Autumn 2025

Synopsis

The goal of speculative fiction has always been to examine the real world through the lens of the imaginary. By considering what could be, we gain a better understanding of what is.

The Colored Lens strives to do exactly that. By publishing ten to twelve short stories and serialized novellas a quarter in genres ranging from fantasy, to science fiction, to slipstream or magical realism, we hope to help our readers see the world just a bit differently than before they came to us.

The Autumn 2025 edition features works by Stuart Docherty, JS Apsley, Josh Morrey, Gio Clairval, Michael Vance, Judy Klass, Parker McIntosh, David Newkirk, Ellie Hoyt, and Rachael Brinegar.

Edited by Dawn Lloyd and Daniel Scott
