HYPERBOREA / AFS 7

**Posted by Scalydemon** 6/13/2015 12:12 am

Added elements I am particularly seeking for this issue:

Arcane horror, alternate interesting takes on Vampires, Ghosts etc., Plan B type horror, Hammer films type horror, mini sanbox settings with adventure locales done in sort of a Vancian/Dying Earth vibe, adventures having to do with Tomb Robbing or some such pursuits.

Also in general, as is normal, I am seekiing material otherwise related to REH, CAS, Jack Vance, or HPL.

Thanks! And I am also going to be sending some messages soliciting articles to some writers I enjoy to see if they want to be a part of AFS. Not sure of a deadline yet. Articles can be sent to srmoberly -at-yahoo.com

I'll be in for something, assuming I can find the time. Probably a short lair - type adventure.

I'll give some thought to a submission too, Scott =)

Hey Scott, do you have a release date planned for this issue? I have an outline for a short Lemurian adventure, assuming it's cool with Jeff.

Sounds great grodog and joseph.

I am shooting for a 10/1/15 deadline for submissions in order for it to be out as a sort of Halloween issue.

Good news. AFS 7 will feature cover art by legendary artist Stephen Fabian (used by permission).

Great! Which piece? Or is it a surprise?

I guess we'll call it a surprise. I do have it narrowed down to 3 finalists now though.

And yes SF is a cool guy to work with. Born in 1930! I contacted him about it, and gave him a link to the zine site. He didn't want any $$ , just wants a copy of the zine when it comes out! I hope I'm half that cool when I'm 85

Just a bump on this for submissions. Thanks! As I am starting work on this.

Also I have reached back out to SF about the cover art and this piece will likely be the cover. (May do on purple or burgundy cardstock).

Nice!

Love it!

Cool!

How are things coming, Scott? I still owe you my piece, I know.

**Posted by Scalydemon** 10/12/2015 9:48 am

Hi Allan, things going pretty good. I got the green light back from SF to use that cover piece and he sent me a clean image to use for it.

I am still in need of submissions, so would welcome yours or anyone elses, preferably by Oct 31st or there abouts.I also have reached out to a few writers individually asking for submissions, not sure who may come through with material yet.

I am hosting an old school gaming keg party at my house on Nov 7th so am also prepping for that so the issue will be delayed some

Salutations grande lestrade,
Yes, and I plan to use the Dying God one. If you had any kind of thought or angle on a complete re-write of the standard D&D Vampire, or Ghost that would be great to see. Or perhaps a write up on san ultra powerful Deity-like Vampire statted out.Something whispered about in legends and rightfully feared. If you don't have the time or can't think of anything on those subjects it is Ok.

Thanks again for your contributions thus far!
