Random quote: "I believe the way toward mastery of any endeavor is to work toward simplicity; replace complex technology with knowledge. The more you know, the less you need. From my feeble attempts at simplifying my own life I've learned enough to know that should we have to, or choose to, live more simply, it won't be an impoverished life but one richer in all the ways that really matter."

Location: Dallas, Texas		I'm in! Haven't read much pulp lately and since i can do short stories I can squeeze in another challenge. I think I'll try to only read freely available stories just to make it interesting. Can I read any combination of author/story or do I need to read a different author for each selection?

There are some really great authors on this list.

Just added three Mildred Clingerman shorts. One does not have a direct link to the free available copy of August 1955 issue of Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction. This is how you can download it.

First go to the Luminist page for Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction at http://www.luminist.org/archives/SF/FSF.htm
Then scroll down to the appropriate issue, in this case August 1955.
Clicking on the blue highlighted date will start the download process.
Clicking on the cover icon will only get you an enlarged image of the cover.

Location: New Zealand		Everyone knows I can't resist a challenge, so I'll give it a go. Chose to go with the 6 women on the list only. I've previously read all but one of them, but I haven't read them widely, so now is a chance to do that.
