SCYSOFFICTION JOURNAL

SHORT FICTION. STRANGE POSSIBILITIES.

A small discovery.
A story worth staying for.

Scysof is a collection of illustrated crime and speculative fiction, created with AI assistance and edited for a clear, immersive reading experience. Ordinary places conceal impossible things: a forgotten coat, a pharmacy counter, a locked room.

Read the first chapter of any story for free. If it draws you in, buy that story’s complete ending for $7, or all six endings for $20. Both are one-time purchases.

Fiction for the moments between everything else.

We specialise in atmospheric crime fiction, from speculative mysteries to grounded city stories. Each tale follows its own characters and conflict; several share clues from the B17 world. AI assists the writing and illustrations, and the stories are edited for this publication.

The first chapter lets you explore the tone, characters and mystery before paying. A $7 ending completes one story. The $20 collection contains every second chapter in this six-story issue. You receive readable HTML chapters by email; there is no recurring charge or automatic website unlock.
