Abyss & Apex Magazine
''Abyss & Apex Magazine'' (A&A) is a long-running, semi-pro online speculative fiction magazine. The title of the zine comes from a quote by Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900), "And if you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." The stories and poetry therefore follow the pattern of “how would humans react?” if a new technology or a type of magic or supernatural power affected them.
The magazine’s title frequently gets confused with Jason Sizemore's ''Apex Magazine'', even though the two magazines are very different. ''Apex'' will explore dark science fiction and horror; while ''Abyss & Apex'' publishes somewhat dark fiction, they will not publish horror. Instead, ''Abyss & Apex'' publishes about fifty percent each fantasy and science fiction. The magazine was issued bimonthly until #13 and thereafter quarterly.
== Subgenres ==
Per Wendy S. Delmater, “''A&A'' likes to show all the different things speculative fiction can be (except horror).” From their submissions page: "We look for the unique: stories that stand out in a genre that pushes the envelope of unusual. We take special delight in detailed world-building: we like slipstream, YA, hypertext fiction, dark fantasy, science fiction puzzle stories, magical realism, hard science fiction, soft science fiction, science fantasy, urban fantasy, military science fiction, ghost stories, space opera, cyberpunk, steampunk... there is very little we will not look at, although we have a severe allergy to zombies, elves, retold fairy tales, sports, westerns, vampires, and gratuitous sex and violence. We have no subject/topic preference, beyond a requirement that the work have a speculative element. We are happy to read stories that don’t quite seem to fit elsewhere."
''Abyss & Apex'' has therefore published a rather broad range of subgenres of both science fiction and fantasy, everything from hypertext science fiction to YA fantasy.
