Not bad for a quick mockup based on a conversation. It’s intriguing. What do you think?

I would buy it, and I’d definitely submit stories to it.
2. Steve Buchheit on Dec 5th, 2007 at 10:56 am
ooo, how to met SF girls! There’s a few bucks outa my pocket for that one.
3. Jeff Beeler on Dec 5th, 2007 at 10:56 am
The last story “How to meet girls who like SciFi” should be the lead story.
4. Tim Akers on Dec 6th, 2007 at 9:37 am
Yeah, I’d buy it. Then again, that’s pretty much what Inferno! magazine and the whole Black Library line is all about.

I love it!
The How to Meet Girls who like SciFi is hilarious, almost sounds like an ad which should be on the side of most torrent sites or craigslist.
