What Is It About?
Journalism Meets Imagination: The Fiction Emailer is the world’s only newsletter devoted to speculative journalism fiction — where storytelling meets real-world reporting. It aims to help readers make sense of today’s complex realities through the lens of myth, fantasy, and science fiction.
What Do You Get?
Stories from the Paper Chronicles Universe: This isn’t just a newsletter — it’s the only one where every story is journalism set inside a speculative universe. All tales unfold in the Paper Chronicles Universe, where journalists investigate the fantastical. It’s myth, media, and mystery — a genre-bending blend of fantasy, retrofuturism, and world-shaking newsrooms.
The Storytellers’ Room: I will also feature interviews with authors, creatives, academics, and media personalities about their craft, their audiences, and the business of storytelling. You even get access to curation of best online writing in these spaces.
Why Am I Doing This?
Offering Hope In The Age Of Chaos: Because the news often feels like doom-scrolling on steroids — endless crises, zero context. I want to create a space where readers can step back, breathe, and see the bigger picture. Fiction helps us process the chaos. Journalism keeps us anchored to truth. Together, they can make us think, laugh, reflect and act.
Who is it for: For curious minds who want to understand the world’s biggest issues through the power of storytelling. Ideal for readers who love long-form journalism but also crave the imagination of speculative fiction.
