I just saw a ‘roller skating sucks’ sticker on the back of a van. I didn’t know it invoked such strong reactions.

This was marvellous fun to do. And what a talented bunch of folks we have running the BFS.
Hey, folks. We hope you're all recovered from WFC & had the best time.
If you're already suffering con withdrawals, be comforted that Glasgow 2026 is now the official seated Fantasycon. Only 11 months to go!
And here's a little something to whet your appetite!

Easiest interview I’ve ever done; @joe-hill.bsky.social answered my questions before I asked them. It was almost as if he had a key that let him look inside my head… 🤔🤯
Wow. @robincmduncan.bsky.social and I just spoke to @joe-hill.bsky.social for 90 minutes. Listeners of Long Story Short are in for a treat - we could have easily talked for longer.
And you're all going to want to check out King Sorrow at @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social 🙌

It’s an honour and an exciting challenge to take on this role; and was a great privilege to learn the ropes under the mentorship of Pete Sutton, who we wish the very best.
After 6 issues & 3.5 years at the helm, Pete Sutton is stepping down as Editor of BFS Horizons—and current Assistant Editor @robincmduncan.bsky.social is stepping up. Robin already acts as the committee's Editorial Officer & co-hosts the BFS podcast.

Congratulations @cameronjohnston.bsky.social. Gorgeous!
We are delighted to reveal the cover for First Mage on The Moon by @cameronjohnston.bsky.social!
Ella is on a mission to reach the moon–even if that incurs a little blasphemy (and Unity interference). Look for it April 14, 2026 from @angryrobotbooks.bsky.social!

Inside me are two wolves:
One wants to wait until tomorrow to announce Witches 2 because by then at least one of the big paperback distributors will notice it's available
The other is like "Announce on the equinox, release on Samhain! Announce on the equinox, release on Samhain!!" 👏👏👏

Lauren is a rather marvellous person. And she does do too many things. But she’s great at them.
I don't believe I've ever done one of these "Hi, it's me!" posts, and I've met an awful lot of new people lately, so strap yourself in... It's gonna be a long 'un because, frankly, I do waaaaay too many things.
