Every Friday, we meet a member of the BFS and peer deep into their soul (or, at least, a form they filled out). Let's head for the Wirral to meet @alexandrapeel.bsky.social - an educator and visual artist who traces her SFFH roots back to the Pied Piper.

On a black background with flourishes of red dots and lines is the text: Meet the BFS members! Alexandra Peel. Alexandra is pictured in the centre in black and white: she is a woman with a short dark haircut and blunt fringe, and she stands in front of shelves while looking off to the side.

America! Let's not fight, seeing as you're enjoying WITHERED HILL so much (currently just $1.99 on Kindle) that you've propelled it to number 5 in the British Horror charts. In the interests of the special relationship, let's see if we can get it higher #folkhorror

Every Friday, we meet a BFS member & peer deep into their soul (or, at least, a form they filled out). This week we're in France with a German former futurist who tends to alpacas & chickens while writing about magical cats—here's @chbieck.bsky.social!

On a black background with flourishes of red lines and dots is the text: Meet the BFS members! Christian Bieck. Christian is pictured in the centre: he is a white man with chin-length grey hair and a grey goatee beard. He wears a black top and stands in front of some distressed wood panelling.

Shown is a graphic with a path through a foggy forest in the background; there is an empty bench barely seen through the mist. On the top right and left is the BFS logo, a white dragon design curling around the letters ‘BFS’. Left is a photo of Dean Koontz, who has dark hair and is wearing a light blue shirt and dark blue trousers. Dean is kneeling with his hands on his dog, a golden retriever called Elsa. Right is the cover for The Friend of the Family, Dean’s latest book. The cover has a blue background, four white feathers and one black feather.
