Short fiction writers, please read this and equip yourselves to make informed choices about the contracts you sign. 💔💪
On August 12, 1971, 16-year-old me mailed the first story I ever wrote off on its first submission to my dream market, F&SF. My tale was quickly rejected. On July 17th, 2025, I finally sold a story to that magazine. Here's why I felt I had to withdraw that story. www.scottedelman.com/wordpress/20...

This affects the ebook of my mythic realist novella THE LAST DRAGONERS OF BOWBAZAR. If you want to get the ebook, you can order it directly from the @subpress.bsky.social here. It's about a family who may be refugees from another reality, living in Calcutta.

THE GIFT by Alison Croggon. I was 13 and struggling w/my library's stuffy SFF section. It was earnest, framed as a translation of history with a fake bibliography in the back, & a female protagonist who had periods. I was OBSESSED.
The whole series is gorgeous & I dont hear it talked about enough.

performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!

for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"
