Still taking pre-orders for "The Finest Edge of Twilight" over at RASalvaStore.com - book is coming soon (next Tuesday!).

Maybe I will just post memes about D&D novels from now on @rasalvatore.bsky.social - looking forward to the new one!

Oh you want my hot takes, no. How about a meme about the excellent Brimstone Angels series by @erinmevans.bsky.social Magic! Poelarms! Dragonborn! Romance! Those books rock

Oh but we love a sea beast

A few familiar names on the shelf of Kinokuniya Books in Sapporo, Japan. The SFF English section is very small, so it was cool to see a range!

A lovely event tonight at Chapters Bookstore - thanks to everyone involved and thanks to all those who came!

BIG BIG DAY! Pantomime is out TODAY in the US! 🎉 Don't worry UK readers, it will be coming to shelves near you on Thursday💜 Let's fly, me lovelies🎪

The Unbroken is great. Come for the cheap lesbians and muscles and scrapping, stay for the colonial power dynamics and identity crises. Like if Frantz Fanon was really into epic fantasy and buff women (which he many have been, who knows)

Round 2 First is a knight, so I think I need this one to go rogue or magic-user ideally to round out the party a little.

After the Istanbul marathon in Nov I pretty much stopped running, but I have just signed up to do the half marathon in Ankara in...33 days? Time to get back on that horse

Hey UK, my reality-bending mother-daughter-found-family-multiverse novel is on sale on Kobo. It's about being lost, trying to find the best version of you (literally), the mysteries of our parents, neuroparasites, murder and features two of my favourite characters I've ever written in Dom and Amber

Excited to say we’re hiring 😊. We’re looking for a post-doc in ancient pathogen genomics to join our friendly supportive team in London at @ugiatucl.bsky.social. Start date January 2026. www.ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/...

I'm sure one of the (deservedly!) authors on the shortlist will get it. I'm about to board a flight. For all who somehow got my weird experimental terrorism climate collapse hope-punk body horror scrapper on this shortlist - thank you. "Work as if you live in the early days of a better nation"

Spent a burning hot day at Perge checking out all sorts, but was playing a lot of 'Pirate Crabs' with stick swords so almost no photos 10/10, Pergelicious

Right so the one job I have tomorrow is to take a colour headshot for the thing So of course I got sunburn today

A solarpunk prose poem this morning, from Ian Green's 'Extremophile'. This is how we do it (to read the whole thing, right click, hit 'open image in new tab' and enlarge. It's worth it. )

the cafe on the roof terrace of this deeply haunted doll mausoleum has a very nice view of Ankara

Science baby

I am absolutely thrilled to announce that THE FOLDED SKY is a finalist for the Dragon Award for Best Science Fiction Novel. awards.dragoncon.org/2025-ballot/

Grateful for this review from @ianthegreen.bsky.social, author of Arthur C. Clarke-shortlisted EXTREMOPHILE! "Sci-fi as dark as the space between the stars, with a noir tint to the station hopping intrigue and a twist of black humour...packed with high concept questions and fantastic set-pieces."

It is 43 Celsius. 43! Reader, I am so pale. And after last year's running I have had a year of sloth (read: insulation building). My body is suited to a windy mountain and a distant weakened sun. I'm not one of these new fancy Uruk-hai, I'm a misty mountains goblin, what the hell am I doing

Slowly EXTREMOPHILE is picking up translation deals, mainly with tremendously cool wee publishers. It is so lovely. Can't wait to announce properly! If you are a cool press somewhere looking to translate the best book of the century, hit me up

TO returns to a favourite author as he reviews @starkholborn.bsky.social 's upcoming Fantasy Western novella FOR THE ROAD: "Holborn’s prose weaves its way through this surreal setting and complex cast binding them together in a delightful reading experience" Read more: tinyurl.com/dz5s3372

Thank you to @ianthegreen.bsky.social Arthur C. Clarke Award-shortlisted author of EXTREMOPHILE, for this fabulous endorsement of @shoutoutmapes.bsky.social 's THE GANYMEDAN! "Sci-fi as dark as the space between the stars" Out Nov '25. Preorder geni.us/ganym Netgalley geni.us/SolarisNG

We're very close to crossing a first threshold at @starsandsabers.bsky.social, which is really cool to see. Probably only important to me, as a first marker, so to speak. But it's satisfying. Thank you to everyone who has bought our books! If you'd like to see them, head to starsandsabers.com/books

Chico, çok güzel yaşlı köpek My Turkish is limited to soft play, ice cream, and dog compliments, but honestly that is actually a lot of my personal Maslow's hierarchy
