'''''Heat''''' is a [[furry fiction]] magazine published annually by [[Sofawolf Press]]. An all-[[sexual orientation|orientations]] erotic anthology, ''Heat'' features “a mix of [[wikipedia:short story|short fiction]], [[comics]], [[wikipedia:poetry|poetry]], and assorted graphic arts pieces intended to evoke a sense of passion and romance.”<ref>[https://www.sofawolf.com/products/heat-1 Heat #1] in [[Sofawolf Press]] online shop. Retrieved 2013 May 22.</ref> While the vast majority of submissions published in ''Heat'' include [[pornography|explicit sexual themes]], the series aspires to present developed stories driven by characters and their relationships, “in which sexuality is an important part of the way the plot plays out, but sex is not the only reason for the story.”<ref>''[http://www.flayrah.com/2067/calling-submissions-sofawolf-press-magazine-heat Calling for submissions to Sofawolf Press' magazine, "Heat"]'' - [[Sofawolf Press]], Flayrah (19 March 2005)</ref>

The first issue of ''Heat'', edited by [[Jeff Eddy]], was published in 2004, and subsequent issues edited by [[Alopex (person)|Alopex]] have been published each year thereafter (excepting the second issue, also published in 2004, and a hiatus in 2006). ''Heat'' has maintained a high standard of quality throughout the years of its history, earning recognition as Best Anthropomorphic Magazine in the 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010 [[Ursa Major Awards]]. It also contained 2007's short fiction winner, ''[[Don't Blink]]'' by [[Kyell Gold]].

''Heat'' is published as a [[wikipedia:Bookbinding#Paperback_binding|perfect-bound]] volume with color covers on gloss-coated cardstock and grayscale interiors on matte paper. The first issue was printed at [[wikipedia:letter size|letter size]], while all subsequent volumes have been 8 in × 10.5 in. The content of a typical issue of ''Heat'' has increased over time, with issues since #6 reaching a plateau in the area of 90-100 pages imposed primarily by cost restraints of printing and shipping. Although there is usually some thematic overlap between the submissions published in a given volume, issues of ''Heat'' do not conform to a tight topical theme, aiming instead for diversity in style, sexual orientation, and erotic intensity. <ref name="interview">''[http://www.flayrah.com/4212/heat-9-interview-series-editor-alopex 'Heat 9' interview: Series editor Alopex]'' - [[Isiah Jacobs]], Flayrah (16 Aug 2012)</ref>
