There are plenty of links dotted around the Silver Age Books website, but here are a few really good ones. Author Homepages Steven Gilligan – www.stevengilligan.com. What is there to be said about this amazing site? The name tells you how good it will be. There is poetry. There are stories. There are films. Silver Age Books on MySpace - come and add us to your friends list! There are links to loads of other writers' sites on our contributors page. Online Stores The Silver Age Books Lulu Store – our newest outlet; we've started to sell some of our newer material on here. The Silver Age Books CafePress Store – be the coolest cat on the block with an SAB t-shirt or mug! Some of our older books may still turn up in the following places. Although we haven't published a new book for a while, all the old ones, except Professor Challenger in Space, are still in print. Amazon – www.amazon.co.uk BOL – www.uk.bol.com Waterstone’s – www.waterstones.co.uk WH Smith – www.whsmith.co.uk Online Resources Internet Speculative Fiction Database We are really chuffed to have had one of our books mentioned as being a part of the Wold Newton Universe. Philip Jose Farmer came to the conclusion long ago that many, many fictional characters were part of a huge family tree. You would have thought that one such brilliant idea would have been enough, but no, he had dozens of them. He was high-concept before Hollywood even thought of the term. My writing methods I take from RL Fanthorpe, my aspirations from PJF. If you have written something brilliant that you don't think fits well with TQF, or if for some crazy reason you would prefer to be paid for all your hard work, take a look at www.ralan.com, www.duotrope.com and the AA Independent Press Guide, three superb listings of markets available to the aspiring writer. You can also report to Duotrope on how long it takes us to respond to submissions.
