SUPPORTING ESCAPE ARTISTS FOUNDATION
EA is a donation-supported US nonprofit with a mission to bring free and accessible audio fiction to a global audience. It's an amazing achievement, and we can't do it without you!
Without donor support none of the creatives involved in our episodes get paid and our servers go dark. We treat every crew member and creative who entrust us with their work professionally—that means paying them.
To do it we need your help! For all our millions of annual streams and downloads, only a very small percentage of our audience are donors, a number that hasn't significantly changed since our founding in 2005. Those generous souls make all the difference.
We offer our supporters access to exclusive benefits like our Discord server or early access episodes. Supporters can also access ad-free episodes, Premium Content goodies, and more regardless of donation platform. Increase the impact of your support with corporate matching programs like Benevity, or support our annual year end campaigns!

For those interested in attending FantasyCon 15–17th September this year:

British Fantasy Society group
Karen Fishwick

Fantasycon Ticket prices go up on Monday, so if you are planning to join us then you may want to buy before then (they will go up again in the week of the convention itself).
We will also be putting day tickets on sale.
We will be finalising Banquet numbers soon for the hotel, so do get your Banquet tickets also as we will not be able to add people after this. Do email me if you want to sit with someone in particular.
The convention bedrrom allocation has sold out. I have asked them to release more rooms, but this may not happen. There are a variety of other hotels in Birmingham, so worth shopping around.
Adverts in the programme will also be coming off the website soon and we will be chasing people who have paid for this, but not sent their artwork in so we can get this ready for the printer.
There will be updates on the website. If you have questions, email admin@hwsevents.co.uk

The terrific Josh Kirby:

Painting of Hitchcock laying down cards, which are all the ace of spades. A skeleton leans on his shoulder. The caption reads:

Hitchcock was in fact a bit too real for me. I was terrified by Psycho, Luckily showers hadn't beeninvented in England then.
