Kailee Peterson, "Nymph." To be honest, when I saw the title, I thought this was going to be about the mythical nymphs. Not so much...but this poem has a lot going on here, about transformation and beauty and fitting in: www.uncannymagazine.com/article/nymph/

For anyone who hasn't read the story yet, this is one of my favorite passages from it because this story was always as much about the brutality of classism and addiction as the moments of tenderness and understanding that help us feel human again.

John wrote one of my all time favourite short fiction pieces* So am excited to read that his (1st?) Novel is coming out: "The Subtle Art of Folding Space" Feat Dim Sum & Physics... sounds amazing. *This one (Which I am again reading cause I mentioned it): www.uncannymagazine.com/article/if-y...

I'm trying to catch up on some novel ARC reading, and haven't read my long queue of short fiction. I've got some other struggles right now. I hope to return to short story recs soon. Today's throwback story rec is Requiem for a Dollface by Margaret Dunlap at Uncanny Magazine (2022)

For @uncannymagazine.bsky.social 'Books were a refuge for me, as they are for so many marginalized kids. My imagination was an infinite accessible multiverse where I could escape, have fun, learn, absorb, and dream big.'

Yes! Do!

I’m the child of a dashboard mechanic and a secretary. I’ve been a janitor, a line cook, and a caregiver. I don’t have a bachelor’s degree. I had public education and libraries. Not a single bit of my literary career needed an AI machine spewing out stolen words for me.

Fuck anybody saying being anti-AI writing equates to being anti-working class, because AI means the working class can finally write their stories. Bullshit. Working class folks have always been writing and telling their stories.

Tomorrow, actually tomorrow, Trace Elements will be released! And here's one of the essays in it, one Ada and I wrote together. www.uncannymagazine.com/article/the-...

“Six People to Revise You” by @jrdawson.bsky.social (Uncanny issue 62, short story) In a world where it’s possible for a person to be entirely “revised”, the narrator collects revision suggestions from set categories of people. www.uncannymagazine.com/article/six-...

“Barbershops of the Floating City” by Angela Liu (Uncanny issue 64, short story) In a stratified city, those with the right ability can coax memories from cut hair, but not without debilitating drawbacks. www.uncannymagazine.com/article/barb...

Elizabeth Hart Bergstorm, "A Full Belly." I could say it's on the list for the sharp interaction between fairy tale and current social commentary, but really, I just like the images of raining peas, and pea-based insomnia: www.uncannymagazine.com/article/a-fu...

“10 Visions of the Future; or, Self-Care for the End of Days” by @samtasticbooks.com (Uncanny issue 63, short story) Ten visions of apocalyptic futures and a couple living through them. www.uncannymagazine.com/article/10-v...

If you’ve never seen @michaeldthomas.bsky.social super excited about an amazing story in Uncanny then you’re missing out - such joy and passion is an absolute delight!!

So *maybe* I’m a little biased (though started reading Uncanny before I ever met Michael!)but 2025 was an awesome year of @uncannymagazine.bsky.social being one of my favourite places to read all the stories,poems and essays!And Michael worked tirelessly to create this awesome magazine! #HugoAwards
