Issue #26 has seen no end to its praises:

“Lady Churchill’s Rosebud Wristlet, that unique, very literary magazine is here with issue #26 with its usual mix of fine stories…Again, I recommend you subscribe to Lady Churchill’s Rosebud Wristlet.” Sam Tomaino, SFRevu

“With issue #26, LCRW has pushed out a supersized chunk of slipstream, fantasy, and historical fiction likely to satisfy even the most refined genre palates…Lady Churchill’s Rosebud Wristlet is certainly a horse of a different color. I can’t think of where else I’d be able to read and assembly of stories so diverse. Though some were not to my particular taste, I applaud the editors for their fearless inclusion of some pieces that would otherwise not see the light of day simply due to their noncommercial nature. Any fan of speculative fiction, or simply good writing, will find something to like in LCRW.” T.N. Tobias, RiseReviews.com

“Lady Churchill’s Rosebud Wristlet is published by Small Beer Press, a lively little press that has been publishing odd and wonderful fiction for a little more than a decade. LCRW is published twice a year, in June and November, and usually contains some of the oddest fiction that you could hope to find, often by new authors who are just testing their wings.” Terry, FantasyLiterature.com

“In the larger context of the field, the editors have built a reputation for knowing quality when they see it, and for encouraging new talent. Those who publish in LCRW know they will be read by the Best Of editors, for example. At the same time, as a reader, you can expect to find gems by people you’ve never heard of, because that has been a part of the soul of LCRW since the beginning.” Alexandre Donald, SFFPortal.net
