Good Vibrations by F.J. Bergmann

F.J. Bergmann edits poetry for Mobius: The Journal of Social Change and imagines tragedies on or near exoplanets. She recently stepped down from 5 years as editor of Star*Line, the quarterly journal of the Science Fiction & Fantasy Poetry Association, and continues as managing editor of MadHat Press. She has no academic literary qualifications, but is kind to those thus encumbered. In a past life she was a centaur. Her poetry appears irregularly in Abyss & Apex, Analog, Asimov’s, and elsewhere in the alphabet, and her genre fiction mostly in Pulp Literature, so far. Her poetry has won the SFPA Rhysling Award for both the Short and Long Poem, and was a runner-up for the 2018 Missouri Review Smith Prize. A Catalogue of the Further Suns, a collection of dystopian first-contact reports, won the 2017 Gold Line Press poetry chapbook contest. Get it and more at fibitz.com.
