Episode #30 - 16th August of the Weird Tales Radio Show podcast is our Mischievous Faeries edition and, along with recounting the legends and folklore of the Willy Howe barrow, we look at the latest reports that pyramids have mystical powers, and have a recipe for using spells to magic up money.​

This is the last Grievous Angel post.

It's been a long and intriguing ride since I launched the Grievous Angel science fiction and fantasy flash fiction and poetry zine in June 2014. Since then we have published over 500 separate stories and poems (and paid contributor fees at pro rates) including many, many scifaiku and at least one ghazal.

It has however always been a one-man-band labour of love for me and I feel I now need a new project or two to reenergize my personal creative batteries, so the time has come to bring the curtain down on the Angel.

Thank you for all your support and I wish you every success in finding new homes for your work.

Our play-out video is a piece of quaintly English humour from the mid-1960s featuring Peter Cook and Dudley Moore.
