Day 10: the friends we made on the way - damn right your co-captains would like to take this excuse to say a huge LOVE YOU to our crew past and present who’ve celebrated #ScifiMonth with us over the years 💖🚀

Scansion? Metre, even. I should go to bed 🫠

(May still be, I’ve not used insta for a few years!)

Spine poetry was an old Instagram tag way back

It is intended as a free-form poem made out of book titles, yes. There’s a narrative thread (in my head, heh), but no rhyming or scansion - partly because poetry is 100% not my skillset and partly because I’m working with book titles on my shelf.

Might’ve helped if I’d added punctuation

I’m sorry it doesn’t work for you

<solidarity fist bump>

How was The Running Man? The trailer looked a lot of fun

Thanks. Currently at ‘why is the world so bright’ and ‘where did I put my book’, so I won’t focus my day on requiring anything clever 🙃

Happy Sunday Womble! I’m currently rereading Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie for the first time since it came out and trying to fend off a migraine (nrgh)

1 point. 2 if I concede that technically the Children’s Encyclopedia collection was Mum’s.

I’ve had more today than I usually get in a month. I have a very cynical suspicion about AI bots 😕

Oooh that all sounds intriguing

Day 3: breaking news - what upcoming SF releases or other news do you have to share with us? #ScifiMonth2025
