Every once in a while you stumble upon a book that blows your expectations into oblivion. I had that experience years ago with “The Aeronauts Windlass” by Jim Butcher.

I was pleasantly surprised to see that book 2 is available for preorder now can’t wait.

This morning, I read “D.I.Y.” by @wiswell.bsky.social in @podcastle.bsky.social

As usual, just incredible from Wiswell. I love to see someone doing so well in the industry by telling stories that ooze positive vibes.

I read “Susurrus” by @litgalz.bsky.social in Zooscape this morning. It’s got a murder-horse, will make you laugh, and plop a heavy lump in your throat. You’ll smile the whole way through. Great story. zooscape-zine.com/susurrus/

Truly you can’t expect me to be fair and decent to EVERYONE?!
“Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos is reportedly concerned that if they give a fair deal to writers and actors in the U.S. that it will set a precedent for writers/actors in other territories to ask for fair deals.”

I mean, yes?

I read “A Life of Color” by @nvhaskell.bsky.social in @metaphorosis.bsky.social this morning and it was wonderful. Good fiction makes you feel things, and this story will break your heart. Go read it.

Are we living through a dark age of SFF publishing? Or are there darker times to come?

My local team was one win away from hosting Messi in a cup final. Why does everything hurt more when you’re THIS close?

Throwing caution to the wind and writing a story mashing together uplifted animals, a sapient robot horse, and bounty hunters into a positive, eco-friendly setting where humanity has broadly solved climate change.

Having. So. Much. Fun.
