Here's the link.
Any help you can do by donating, or sharing the info, is greatly appreciated.

OMG…!!!
THIS LOOKS FASCINATING…!!!
Are you going to World Fantasy in Brighton? Might you like a macaroon? Or a glass of wine? Are you intrigued by the lure of goodies?

Would you perhaps like to hear Peter F. Hamilton and Stew Houston talk about Stew's fantastic new space opera?

Does Stew have the event for you!
If you're @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social my new novel,
Project Hanuman, is launching there two weeks early at 2pm on Friday 31st.

I will be joined by the amazing Peter F Hamilton to talk about the novel and there'll be macarons, wine and goodies.

Headband I wear a LOT is so old-sweat stinky.

the symbolism of “Trump destroying the White House for a overpriced luxury vanity project, during a government shut down, days after a historically-large mass demonstration against his regime called “No Kings”’ would be rightly viewed as laying it on a little thick if it was in a work of fiction

On his blog, @jdnicoll.bsky.social takes a look at The Eye of Argon, and how many fans have been cruel to the (then teenaged) author and his work.

All Summer in a Day
Jim Theis’ 1970 The Eye of Argon [1] is a stand-alone sword and sorcery novelette. It was originally published in OSFAN 10. The barbarian Grignr has many skills. Avoiding danger is not one of them.

If I were a ghost showing up during a seance, I'd probably keep apologizing for not being scary enough and then I'd somehow trip on an ottoman even though I would be incorporeal.

Cuomo, speaking about how he'd deal with state elected leaders as mayor, says "the city has been getting screwed by the state" (quite ironic, given Cuomo was governor until 2021).
