Farewell Chris Priest – one of the best. A generous, caring and deeply passionate man whose work has helped to shape so many of us. Nobody wrote (or swore) quite like him. www.ninaallan.co.uk?p=6855

“The more he ploughs his own strange furrow, the more humane his work becomes.”

Thrilled to bits that Lamb features in Simon Ings’ SF of the year.

Mundane horrors no. 23: Towards the end of summer, we found a wasps’ nest in the roof above our hallway. We were told to leave it be; it was late in the season. So we did, and for the last month or more, we’ve had dying wasps crawling down through the light fixtures and collapsing inside our shoes 💀
