Ravenglass came out last week, and we would love to hear from anyone who's started reading it.

Here are some of the quotes we've had so far; our favourite is still whoever called it "Baroque and Roll" 😍

Have you checked out this 1700s gender-fluid adventure novel yet?

We will be attending the brilliant Edge-Lit book and writing festival in Derby today, so it seems the perfect time to shout out to our speculative fiction!

Yes, as @northodoxpress.bsky.social says, thanks so much to all who posted photos of Hostile Environments in launch week, and it's got me wondering, what's the collective noun for a group of Hostile Environments? A threat? A riot? A murder? 🤔
Huge thank you if you've tagged us or Jan Kaneen in pictures of her brilliant new collection, Hostile Environments, so far!

You can order this wonderful, brand new set of short and flash fiction now:
