I've been chatting with another editor about the use of AI, and that conversation basically boiled down to: Fuck AI in its plagiarising asshole.

Due to technical difficulties (let me live the dream)... a repost with the correct cover! Yes, there were two covers for SNAFU: Contagion, and my finger slipped. Twice. Shh. Here we go! amandajspedding.com/2025/09/28/a...

SNAFU: Contagion had an incredible submission call. We were blown away by the quality, so we've selected 18 amazing stories, resulting in a projected wordcount for Contagion around 115-120,000. And a brand new cover to celebrate this massive tome! ToC soon, with Jonathan Maberry headlining!

I done did my democracy, ate requisite sausage sanga, and devoured a lamington on the two-minute walk home. Let's keep the fascists out. #NoVoldemort

Whyyyyy?😭😭😭

Hells, yes! Trailer for S4 of Love, Death + Robots is here! Super-pumped for this, and yes, there's a SNAFU story in this season. Get this in your eyeballs! www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnvk...

Finally flowering 😍

When you 'roo wrong 😬

This is Grim. I put the 'wrong' food in his bowl and must now sleep with one eye open.

About to head out for last bits of Christmas shopping. Please send non-murdery vibes. 😒

Me: Watchya watchin? SO: A movie on Grýla— Me: Ooh, the Icelandic witch who stuffs kids in sacks then eats them? SO: …the things your mind retains… Me: Look, I understand the importance of remembering to get cheese when I’m out, but CANABALISTIC CHRISTMAS WITCH! SO: 🙄

Back to the farm for Christmas 😍

Plus my totally angry werewolf.

Rising fast 😭

When it's already too hot to cat

Much tempted to go stand in this but it would most likely knock me on my arse 🤔

Sooo... Saturday is Hell day. 😭

Hiccup's first Christmas tree. We've spent most of our time dragging her out of it. The ever-happy Mia is waiting for doggy treats (cheese, she's waiting for cheese).

SNAFU:PUNK'D arriving!

New coffee mug 😍

SNAFU:PUNK'D is here, and it's beautiful!

Stood shoulder-to-shoulder in existential dread at the petfood section of the supermarket with another person owned by cats, and watched dog owners just roll on by picking anything off the shelf like their pets eat whatever you put in front of them.

*sighs* Another dumped baby bun. At least the people who found her want to keep her. If you can't look after a pet: 1) don't get one 2) take them to a vet/shelter rather than abandoning them where they're unlikely to survive.

Hiccup has decided she'll be going to work with Mr AJ today.

Rocking horse, with bonus nightmares.

Life with a kitten 😐
