So, B&N is having a preorder sale at the same time as Amazon is having a sale, and both are targeting Independent Bookstore Day, which is one of the biggest in-store shopping days of the year. It feels shitty as an indie bookstore to be targeted by billionaire and venture-backed corporations

Love seeing the writing community come together <3 Let's keep it going!

This looks absolutely amazing!

congratulations to my wonderful friend @rukman.bsky.social Now come visit me :D

Soumi is a kind hearted person and a "shirt off her back" friend who pours love and energy into all of her friendships. Please take a moment to help or share this post <3

I can't believe two of the most talented people I know are in the same lit mag. Congrats to both @antoinettev.bsky.social and @nabangl.bsky.social !! so proud of you both <3

I can personally confirm that Soumi really got my query package into shape. I went from no one giving my QL a glance to winning writing competitions, getting full requests in five minutes (no exaggeration), and having an overwhelmingly positive experience querying.

Now that we’ve officially launched OTHERSIDE, it’s time to highlight our amazing team! We’re a speculative magazine for queer writers and poets, so it was important to us that our team be queer-led too. In this thread, learn about each of us—and the kinds of submissions we hope to see next year:

I love this precious little story

This is such a special magical story <3

TJ Klune x Seanan McGuire: Bright kid turned clueless adult just wants to matter to someone IRL. When her 'not-so-imaginary' imaginary friend offers her a better world, it's hard to say no when the only cost is....her self. #A #SPEC #PopUpPit @luckypit

Squid Gamex1984 To find her bestie, Tate lies her way onto the Trinity Trials—televised games in which viewers decide all: magic players are 💉 with, the hunter, &each twist. She must survive not only the games+the hunter but other desperate players who play by their own rules. #popuppita #luckypit

Brought Stardust back out to submit to #RevPit, since ATPC isn't quite ready, and I'm hoping to start the Stardust sequel (as a standalone) soon. 👀 Stardust even has book trailer I made a while ago: youtu.be/kUrCrMndmEM?...

So proud of my friend, happy book birthday!

The birthday blues really hit hard this year

when two authors you admire are in the same lit mag!!!

Never mind more Indiana jones. We could have more Brendan Fraser mummy movies.

How's this wip going so far? Well the Betas seem to be having fun 👀

Truly a talented writer and a force

It would be really nice if there were, idk, consequences for these ongoing war crimes
