Orion's Child Science Fiction & Fantasy Magazine
Orion's Child Science Fiction & Fantasy Magazine was a fantasy and science fiction magazine first published in 1984 by Orion Press under the editorship of T. Joseph Cole. The magazine featured original fiction, art, and poetry. Though it included works by such prominent authors as Ray Bradbury and Richard L. Tierney, the original magazine produced only two issues. Recently, Orion's Child has been resurrected by the son, Gabriel M. Cole, of the original founder and editor, himself an aspiring writer.
The new incarnation, this "second volume" of Orion's Child, is an e-zine and is not published in paper format. The first issue appeared in May 2007, with subsequent issues appearing monthly. The second volume adheres to a similar format as the original paper magazine, including original art, poetry and fiction, but eschewing in-page navigation, blogs, or other web enhancements to hold true to the style of a paper magazine.

And rising on his hands....””

It is especially painful to have to admit this if we really love our child and want to respect his or her individuality yet are unable to do so.”

—James Conant (1893–1978)
“The private detective of fiction is a fantastic creation who acts and speaks like a real man. He can be completely realistic in every sense but one, that one sense being that in life as we know it such a man would not be a private detective.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
“The search for conspiracy only increases the elements of morbidity and paranoia and fantasy in this country. It romanticizes crimes that are terrible because of their lack of purpose. It obscures our necessary understanding, all of us, that in this life there is often tragedy without reason.”
—Anthony Lewis (b. 1927)
“I have been searching history to see if really a woman has any precedent to claim the right to have her rights, and I am compelled to say that we men are not so much ahead of women after all, and the only way we have kept our reputation up is by keeping her down—and don’t you forget it!”
—George E. Foster, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. The Woman’s Magazine, pp. 38-41 (October 1886)
