"ATTACK OF THE 50 FOOT WOMAN" (released 11/12/93)

Daryl Hannah stars in the remake of the 1958 B-movie cult classic. The design/effects work was a deliberate homage to 1950s giant monster sci-fi/horror movies.

#SFFChat Outro: Thanks again for hosting, Steve!

And a reminder that I'm hosting #DetailedSFFIntros, starting this Sunday, for those who like to yap!

#Writing #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #SFF #SciFi #ScienceFiction #Fantasy #SpecFic #SpeculativeFiction
#DetailedSFFIntros by @miwwdu-sitsom.bsky.social Background I love talking about my stories, and have had a lot of fun participating in writing prompts here. I absolutely love it when people like my posts, reply with thoughtful comments and especially when they remember something about my story I posted earlier. But I've been feeling bad lately because I feel I haven't been doing the same for others. Part of why I hosted #ConlangNovember last month was to give back to this amazing writing community! I've been participating in writing prompts, but so far haven't really been reading other people's posts, and I want to change that. The issue is that BlueSky lends itself to short posts on random topics, without enough context for me to follow. And I've noticed that I need that context in order to truly understand your posts and become invested in your stories. If I had it, I think I'd be able to enjoy your little posts so much more and be able to engage with your stories and give you more thoughtful comments. So that's what this is about. Give me all the context for your stories, all in one place! That'll help me figure out which ones happen to match my particular tastes, that I think I'll enjoy, so I can pick however many I have time and spoons for and learn the fundamentals, so I can get invested in them and give them all the love they deserve! Apologies to those of you who participate whose stories I don't end up engaging more with after this. I'm only human, have finite time, and being social is taxing for me. But I'm hoping others (possibly who have the same trouble I have of needing context to get invested) find your stories through this and give them love! #DetailedSFFIntros by @miwwdu-sitsom.bsky.social Schedule December 14: WEEK 1: The Story Introduce yourself and your story! Blurb, genres, target audience, status, selling points, whatever you want! This can be as long or as short as you want. December 21: WEEK 2: The World Introduce the world your story is set in! Countries, magic system/tech level, wildlife, whatever you've got! What's speculative about it? Is there anything that just works totally different from our world? Try to go in as much detail as you can and make sure to cover anything that's necessary to understand your story/your typical posts about it! There is no maximum length; yap all you want! December 28: WEEK 3: The Characters Introduce your main cast! Protagonists, antagonists and important side characters. Whoever frequently comes up in your posts. Give us their name, pronouns, species (if nonhuman), personality, goals, and anything else you think is relevant. Character art, if you've got it. January 4: WEEK 4: The Plot Give us the detailed synopsis! Aim for a minimum of 300 words. No need to get into spoilers, but I'm looking for more than just a blurb. This is not just selling your story; I'm hoping to get enough detail that if you post a snippet from your story that references plot events, I can hazard a guess as to what point in the story it's from. January 11: WEEK 5: Wrap Up Your choice what to post for this. Feedback, promo, a snippet, shoutouts. Anything goes! #DetailedSFFIntros by @miwwdu-sitsom.bsky.social Rules (read carefully) 1. This is targeted at writers of speculative fiction stories (including science fiction and fantasy) that you post about here on BlueSky relatively regularly, but if this doesn't apply to you, you can still participate. 2. WIPs and published works, books, comics, TTRPGs and screenplays, all valid! 3. Read the schedule ahead of time and make sure you're up for it. For Weeks 2 to 4, I'm really looking for the details, not just a few words. I've given a week between prompts to give you time to prepare your responses, so make sure to check out what's coming up. If that's not enough, you can always post late. 4. Any images you post should include ALT text. Some of the questions are designed so the answers won't fit in a single post, and I recommend posting your answers as screenshots with ALT text. Note that there is a 2000 character cap on ALT text, so take that into account when you take your screenshots. 5. Include the hashtag #DetailedSFFIntros in your post for each week. MOREOVER, especially if you're posting about multiple stories, ensure your submissions for a single story can all easily be found together. Here are two proposed ways of accomplishing that: A) Keep posts on a single story within a single thread. So your post for Week 2 would be a reply to your post for Week 1, your post for Week 3 would be a reply to your post from Week 2, etc. Make sure to @ me so I get notified. B) Create a hashtag for each story you wish to discuss. An example format would be #[author's name/username]-[title]-DSFFI. Other formats are allowed, but try to ensure it won't collide with anything else. If you're discussing multiple stories set in the same world, this option is recommended, since you can tag your answer for Week 2 (The World) with the hashtag for all relevant stories and avoid having to duplicate post it in multiple threads.

This is a city on a neutral planet - Vanfylion. The planet is too close to the star therefore it displays tidal lock phenomenon. Cities can only be built on the dark side of the planet. #scifi #sciencefiction #worldbuilding #conceptart #originalfiction #digitalart

La réélection de Churchill après 1945 était-elle de trop ?
La suite on la connaît : assassinat de Gandhi par un musulman, massacres intercommunautaires et éclatement des Indes. Suivra ensuite l’insurrection en Malaisie, le soulèvement des Mau-Mau et finalement l’effondrement de l’Empire qu’il refusait de voir « démembré ».

Okay, so, church in an alternate timeline. I'd sat through full Catholic funeral masses, and some all-day ceremonies in other cultures, so I wasn't too put off. It would be a chance to learn about their religion, anyway. At the moment, the only thing I really knew about the local faith was that my existence was blasphemous.
