WSFA Journal

The WSFA Journal is a science-fiction fanzine that was published approximately once a month from 1965 to 2012 by the Washington Science Fiction Association (WSFA).

The journal typically contains reviews of books, movies, science fiction fanzines, science fiction conventions, TV shows, and websites; obituaries; minutes of WSFA meetings; humor; original fantasy and science fiction; cartoons; spoofs; news about WSFA, science, science fiction, and science fiction fandom; announcements of upcoming events; letters and emails to WSFA; and much more.

The only things specifically forbidden are current American politics, sports scores, and attacks on WSFA members.

The 85 issues from before this gap, called first series issues, were more widely distributed within fandom, and today often show up on eBay.

Past editors of the second series are Somtow Sucharitkul (1978–1979), Joe Mayhew (1979–1996, intermittently), Marianne Petrino-Schaad (1980–1981), Jane Wagner (1981–1983), Beverly Brandt (1983–1985), Ginny McNitt (1985–1986), Erica Ginter (1986–1987), Mary Morman (1988–1989), Rachel Russell (1989–1990), Lee Strong (1990–1995), Samuel Lubell (1996–2004), Keith Lynch (2004–2005), Ernest Lilley (2005–2006), Drew Bittner (2006–2007), Adrienne Ertman (2007), and Steven Smith (2007–2010).
