This Week at Raconteur Press: Dec 16-23

We're barreling into Christmas like a rocket at warp speed!

It’s a roundup of open calls today, with the reprobates of Space Malfeasance leading the pack! Opening this coming Saturday. Watch for the homework post coming soon!

*not necessarily the cover, but it could be!

• Space Malfeasance
  Edited by Spearman Burke

Ten Percenters in space, the dirtbags, the malcontents: they’ll be out there, goldbricking like they’re getting paid to do it. Stories about the E-4 Mafia, the Sham Shielders, Airman Schmucketelli, the Lance Criminals. Some are heroes, some are complete idiots. Y’know, all the reasons your First Sergeant is on his second liver. If the aliens only knew what was coming, would they have surrendered so easily to mankind? Stories your commander reads every morning in the military police blotter...in spaaaaccceeee!
