Our theme this month at Cerise, “Heroines and Villainesses,” is the sort of broad topic that the editors love best. We’re always interested in a wide range of articles, and this month we’ve got it! Melissa Velte sent us an article examining a particular villainess, and Brendan Davis contributed a how-to about using “guest star” villains to spice up a tabletop game. Robin Sevakis created a fantastic piece of art for the cover, Robyn Fleming wrote about attending WisCon 32, and Andrea Rubenstein discussed her personal impressions of heroism. Sara Girard also speaks briefly about what she finds appealing about heroines in one of our interviews. There’s a lot of great stuff in this issue – check it out!
And if you’d like your own work to appear in a future issue of Cerise, stop by our submissions page to find out how.
