About/FAQ
What is Pink Raygun?Pink Raygun is a webzine focusing on the modern fangirl. It’s a smart and savvy place to discuss and read about science fiction, fantasy and horror in all of their forms, be it television, movies, books or comics. It’s Starlog meets Glamour, Babylon 5 meets Coupling, Isaac Asimov meets Helen Fielding. But snarkier.
Pink Raygun is everything you’d expect from a genre site, but girly. Every day at Pink Raygun, you’ll find interviews with the women (and men) who make genre film and television awesome: writers, costume designers, hair and make-up artists, and special effects crew. We’ll also talk to women (and men) who are working in manga, comics and fiction. Other features of Pink Raygun include genre news, a message board forum, opinion pieces addressing issues within scifi, fantasy and horror and an extensive section dedicated to reviews of print and visual media, events, websites and music.
I saw a book/movie/tv show/website that could use the snarky Pink Raygun treatment. Who do I tell about it?
You can send the URL to submissions@pinkraygun.com or you can post your own review on the Pink Raygun message board forums. If the editor likes your style, she may ask you to be a Raygun contributor. Lady Raygunners can review anything they want.
I’m kind of embarrased about this, but I’m a guy. Can I still send a review to Pink Raygun?
Of course.
Can I submit my artwork to the Pink Raygun Gallery?
Artwork submitted to the gallery should incorporate an image of a pink raygun. We will include a link to your website. If your website is awesome, we might write an article or review about you.
Can I send my press release to Pink Raygun?
Anyone with news items or upcoming projects should send press releases to submissions@pinkraygun.com.
How can I get Pink Raygun to review my book/ comic book/ other property?
We can’t afford to buy everything out there. If you’d like your property reviewed in Pink Raygun, please provide either physical or digital preview copies. Send an email to submissions@pinkraygun.com with your name, contact information and a synopsis of your property. If you are sending a hard copy, please include this information in your email and we’ll give you the mailing address. Pink Raygun will accept a PDF preview copy as an email attachment.
While there’s no guarantee that we’ll absolutely love everything sent in to us, we will be fair in our reviews.
