Aqueduct Press is proud to announce The Year's Illustrious Feminist Science Fiction and Fantasy, our new anthology series dedicated to presenting readers with collections of remarkable feminist speculative fiction. The first volume of the series will reprint stories published in 2014. Editor Nisi Shawl will be assisted in selecting its content by four volunteer readers, each covering one of the year's quarters: Nancy Jane Moore, Keffy Kehrli, K. Tempest Bradford, and Rochita Loenen-Ruiz. Author, editor, publisher, and critic L. Timmel Duchamp will provide a summary of the year's activity in the feminist SF arena. YIFFSFF: 2014 is scheduled to appear in late May 2015.
We intend to assemble anthologies representing the qualities that make feminist SF so amazing, thought-provoking, challenging, and deeply satisfying. At this time we're limiting ourselves to works published in English. If you'd like to suggest a piece of short fiction to be considered for inclusion in the 2014 volume,, please use the form we've linked to on the Aqueduct Press home page.
Contact Nisi Shawl (reviews[AT]thecsz[DOT]com) with other questions or concerns about this anthology. Please put YIFFSFF 2014 in the subject line.

This sounds wonderful. When will it be available for pre-order?
We haven't yet worked that out-- but stay tuned, please!
Curious as to whether there's a link to the entries already made. Would prefer not to enter stories already therein. Also, seems like it might be a good resource for finding new reading material. Thanks. - best, Cynthia Ward
Are self-published works eligible?
We don't have a way to let you know what's been nominated already, Cindy. Blair, we haven't made any rule against self-published work.
Is this still open for submissions and can authors submit their own work? PLMK--
