We're now at the mid-point between Christmas Day and the New Year. With the final issue of the magazine still lingering in our memories, it feels appropriate to do a last overview of what and who Black Static has published.

With the release of double issue #82/83 Black Static has presented readers with a grand total of 469 stories (excluding the 20 flash fictions that featured in #17/18 as part of the Campaign for Real Fear).

Of those 469 stories 149½ (32%) had a female by-line (for the statistical purists, that's 148 stories written by women, and three that were co-written with men).

214 writers had fiction appear in the magazine and 80 (37%) of them were women.

The most frequent contributors to the magazine were:-

    Ray Cluley - 17 stories

    Ralph Robert Moore - 13

    Carole Johnstone - 12½

    Steve Rasnic Tem - 12

    Stephen Hargadon - 10

    Tim Lees - 10

    Simon Avery - 9

    Tim Casson - 9

    Steven J. Dines - 9

    James Cooper - 8

    Andrew Hook - 8

    Daniel Kaysen - 8

    Joel Lane - 7

    Gary McMahon - 7

    Kristi deMeester - 6

    V. H. Leslie - 6

    Jack Westlake - 6

    Nina Allan - 5

    Tyler Keevil - 5

    Sarah Read - 5

    Danny Rhodes - 5

    Priya Sharma - 5

     

I'll be back in 2024, time and circumstances permitting, with more reviews of books that were sent to me back when we were all much younger.
