YES, after months of reviewing, and editing, and managing art, and more editing, and layouts, Heat #9 is finally in the final stages towards getting printed! All art and stories are in and contracts signed, so I can safely announce the new issue without fear of having to retract information because of late changes.

Heat #9 will have its official release at Anthrocon in June, and then will be available online on June 20th on the Sofawolf website HERE, the Wednesday following the convention (by which we hope to have survived the 2-day road trip home).

This year's volume has a great lineup of stories and art -- as always but more so! Or something like that. We have quite a range of story themes, and of course a range of sexual orientations to boot. The art is also a wonderful range of digital and traditional media. I'm really looking forward to seeing how it turns out in print.

You can view the table of contents page, which I just posed. That has icon links to most of the folks here on FA who have contributed to this volume. Unable to appear on that page because of FA's limit on icons-per-post, we have  blotch  khaz  tush  rukis  foxfeather  mitti  huskyteer.

TEASERS!
Here are the teaser images that I've found from the various artists who contributed to this issue. If you know of more, please let me know and I'll add them!
