Title: Alternate Hilarities Kickstarter
Post by: Windup on March 09, 2014, 03:40:20 PM

Alternate Hilarities: The Magazine of Speculative Humor is staging a comeback as an anthology, called, oddly enough, Alternate Hilarities..  We have Alien invasions and Abductions, Time Travel, Ghost Ships, Demonic Possessions, Flatulent Clowns, Body Switching, Talking Monkeys and Feghoots. (I can personally vouch for the presence of at least one Feghoot.)

To bring this into the world, Strange Musings Press needs a successful Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/809941908/alternate-hilarities?ref=live (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/809941908/alternate-hilarities?ref=live)

At the Kickstarter, you can get the eBook edition for $6, the paperback for $12 or both for $15.  Assorted goodies for higher contribution levels, including character naming rights.

You can also check out a preview here: http://www.strangemusingspress.com/p/preview-story-for-alternate-hilarities.html (http://www.strangemusingspress.com/p/preview-story-for-alternate-hilarities.html)

Full Disclosure:  I've got a story selected for this one (that's how I can vouch for the Feghoot), so I'm not a completely disinterested party.

I wanted to let everyone know the Alternate Hilarities kickstarted succeeded. A big "Thank You" to anyone from the forums who contributed.  If you haven't, the editor has added some stretch goals, and the drive remains open until Tuesday, March 25.
