Edited by Felicity Walker, the zine for the British Columbia Science Fiction Association. This ish is dated November 2017–Felicity is still trying to catch up, but I think she might be falling further behind.
Two zines to share!
From the BCSFA, edited by Felicity Walker, the BCSFAzine. It’s dated October 2017 because Felicity is a year behind schedule and still hopes to catch up. This makes for a lot of confusion. For instance, there is a great review of VCon 1918, which is going to lead readers in the future to wonder about time travelling editors.
From Lebyl Botwinik in Israel, CCDecember which has an interesting review of the reboot of Lost in Space.

A number of fanzines have landed in our mailbox. Download and enjoy!
PurrMew63 is a perzine edited by R-Laurraine Tutihasi. Her zine generally features some wonderful photography from Mike Weasner, who is probably her husband. In this issue great shots of a hawk and of course, their cats. Mike has lots of telescopes, I am so envious, and his astrophotography is amazing. Check out his photo of the Orion Nebula Orion nebula taken with his Nikon D850 DSLR camera through his 12” telescope. It’s on page 7.
From British Columbia BCSFAzine 530 , edited by Felicity Walker. Ignore the date, Felicity is determined to catch up on missed deadlines.
Years ago, we exchanged zines with Probe the zine of the SFF club in South Africa, but then we lost touch. Glad to hear from them again. Probe 176 features great cover art and a couple of short stories.
The National Fantasy Fan Federation has sent us their own zine, 
TIGHTBEAM 287 which also has amazing cover art. Quite a few book reports, interesting articles – one on Roswell which will interest quite a few MonSFFen– a short story. movie reviews, and reviews of a couple of fanzines.

A round-up of zines sent to MonSFFA recently
BCSFAzine, From Felicity Walker who writes:
Hi everyone. Next issue is the January 2017 issue, so my “New Year’s” resolution is to go faster. 
Vibrator 43 from Graham Charnock who writes:
Calling all Groovers of Fandom (yes, you). Your monthly Vibrator awaits you, attached to this very message. This month Curt Phillips secedes from the Confederacy, whilst Jim Mowatt trawls the dens of inniquity that were the Helnsinki Worldcon and reports back. Nice Farey predicts the outcome of the Floyd Mayweather fight (what you already knew the outcome?) And more, but not much more. Open it up and take a bath.
TNFF 2017-09 From George Phillies, who writes:
I attach the September 2017 issue of The National Fantasy Fan. The latest issue of Tightbeam will follow in a few days.
And then:
Behold! Tightbeam 280!

Edited by Feliciy Walker, this is the clubzine for the British Columbia Science Fiction Association.
She is a little behind–this is the September issue. I’m a little in awe that she is still planning to get out an issue every month, even for the months she missed–when I fell “a little behind” I skipped a whole season!
