Apex Magazine is excited to present SNAP JUDGMENT Episode 12 of our rapid-fire, live-streaming critique series.
Every quarter, industry professionals Lesley Conner, Rebecca E Treasure, and a special guest offer live feedback on the first pages of anonymous submissions, read aloud by our host and narrator.
We’re so pleased to announce that our special guest editor for this episode is Sloane Leong! Sloane Leong is a cartoonist, illustrator, art director, narrative game designer, writer, and editor of mixed indigenous ancestry. Through her work, she engages with visceral futurities and fantasies through a radical, kaleidoscopic lens. She is currently living on Chinook land near what is known as Portland, Oregon with her family and two dogs.
This episode originally livestreamed February 7, 2025 on the Apex Magazine Youtube channel.
