Trouble Among The Stars is an online speculative fiction and poetry journal. We publish all that’s new and strange in the realm of the speculative, with an emphasis on sci-fi and works related to science. We pay writers, and we work hard to create a comfortable and hospitable environment for emerging voices in the world of speculative fiction. If you have any questions or comments, please reach out to us at troubleamongthestars@gmail.com – we’d love to hear from you!

As of May 2020, Trouble Among The Stars has ceased operations as a journal. In total, six issues were published over a span of 18 months. We will be publishing a celebratory physical chapbook in late 2020/early 2021, featuring new writings by past T.A.T.S. contributors Charlotte Platt and Amy LeBlanc – please see our Two Hauntings page for more details.
