Travis Tea - author of Atlanta Nights
The official website of "Travis Tea", the pen name of several SF authors, united to write the worst possible book. Results were surprising.

Update: 29 November 2010
What do you have planned in the long term?
- perfecting the Slovenian SF&F bibliography, perhaps rudimentary genre and subgenre definitions,
- the list of translators needs a lot of work,
- rechecking and updating (especially Slovenian) links,
- an expansion into theoretical contributions on the genre of SF, its role and potential in world and local literature,
- a more precise list of Slovenian SF content in other media; film, theatre, music, visual art...
Which changes will probably never occur?
- comercialisation of the project,
- any cooperation with an individual SF&F author or publisher that would lead to a markedly disproportionate promotion for its own sake, regardless of quality. The website remains as objective and independent as possible,
- an expansion into an interactive online community (there are plenty out there with different foci; this website will remain of an encyclopedic nature).

I have a wish to cooperate and some ideas for the development of your website, would you like to join efforts?
I genuinely appreciate the offered assistance, but my workload, irregular intervals of free time and constantly changing ideas about the concept make this project such that teamwork is not a sensible solution. I gratefully accept any notice on overlooked events, authors, translators, works and links (as well as suggestions for the development of the website, but I cannot promise their implementation).
How much time has been spent on this project if only one person is behind it?
∞. At least that is what it feels like. :)
The font is too small, I can hardly read!
You can enlarge (Control and +) or reduce (Control and -) font size as you please. You can use the same search function your text editor provides (Control and F).
The background texture comes from GRsites.com, the header fonts are Jamaisteve and Miso.
