Such a great book!

Una de las prácticas que traducen mis alumnos gira en torno a un fragmento de otra novela de este escritor (Eutopia: A Novel of Terrible Optimism, mi primer contacto con su obra), pero Rasputin's Bastards mola como la mezcla de Expediente-X, Guerra Fría, Nuevos Mutantes y calamares gigantes que es.

Convincing you to read my book by the first sentence (or so): The start of Rasputin's Bastards.

Apparently today is the day* to remind everyone that @davidnickle.bsky.social and I edited a James Bond anthology: www.goodreads.com/book/show/25... *For the record, I mean a day in which Bond is being discussed broadly, and not, you know, Remembrance Day.

For American readers looking to read a horror novel set just prior to the rise of Nazi Germany, a deal: my novel VOLK: A Novel of Radiant Abomination is just that, and also on sale for $1.99 for the e-book today. davidnickle.ca/writing/volk/

Finished reading this short horror story collection by Toronto legend @davidnickle.bsky.social last night. I’m a huge fan of Eutopia and Volk so I knew I would dig. Did not disappoint!

So @procreate.com released a new update with a completely different brush set not long ago. Confusing at first, but it got me thinking outside the norm, and tried my hand at a Turner pastiche. Didn't quite hit it... but I'm not unhappy with it either. #art

I'm not at the Seattle Worldcon in person, but I will be there online, reading a story alongside fellow Canuck authors Derek Kunsken and Geoff Ryman to support the 2030 Edmonton bid. The readings are at 3 p.m. PST, 6 p.m. EST, on Aug. 16. www.edmontonin2030.org/bidparty?fbc...

I have watched me some Eurovision before. But never as a co-owner of Canada with an eye to joining the EU, and I'll say this: The common market does look like a lot of fun.

And just like that, I have finished a draft of a new novel! It is 40,000 words too long... I don't think the ending quite works... and there is probably, certainly, too much cursing. But The Wasp Hill Correspondent has a draft, and it's about fucking time...
