Hello!

Hi, I'm John Joseph Adams. I'm an editor, publisher, anthologist, game designer, and all-around geek. I edit Lightspeed Magazine and publish both it and Nightmare, and I've edited more than 40 anthologies, including Out There Screaming (with Jordan Peele) and the Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy series. I also co-founded The Geek's Guide to the Galaxy podcast and still appear on it occasionally.

Robot Wizard Zombie Crit! is my newsletter. With it, you can keep up with my anthologies, Lightspeed, and Nightmare—as well as SF/F news and reviews, discussion of RPGs, and other fun stuff. Delivered to your inbox once a week.

Subscribers get a free, subscriber-exclusive ebook anthology for signing up!

You might also be interested in joining my Discord server if you'd like to discuss any of the above with other readers.

While You're Here... Join My Discord Server!

Discord is basically like a cross between a instant messenger and an old-school web forum.

Join my server to chat and share opinions with people who like the same stuff you like (assuming you like the stuff I like, and you probably do or you wouldn't be reading this right now).

Join to chat about SF/F short stories, books, movies, tv, games, and more!
