The Short Story and the Serial:
Popularizing Science Fiction

The science fiction genre remains intrinsically linked with short stories and journal publications. From the 1926 appearance of Hugo Gernsback’s, Amazing Stories to more recent issues of Galaxy and Analog, pulp magazines and later science fiction digest magazines became the vehicles through which many new authors were introduced.
