This could be my favorite news story of the year.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Just a few hours left to get your stories in to the fantastic #SciFanSat magazine for this month. I've just submitted a piece of flash fiction that is kind of a crossover and has two old friends, character wise, from different universes I've been writing... 👀 👽🐲

Haha. Does seem up my alley, although I hope they did some basic level research into how each writer would fight. Like Hemingway should be able to box, and maybe Lovecraft can conjure unearthly horrors to aid him.

Saw this elsewhere as a screenshot and it made me laugh, and think of my #SciFanSat friends... for some reason, I particularly thought you, @thesurrealari.bsky.social and @jason-h-abbott.bsky.social 😉🤔🤣🤣

The newest edition of #SciFanSat (@scifansat.bsky.social) was out yesterday, and I'm proud to have two pieces in there; a Flash fiction revisiting some old friends, and a poem for my youngest called, appropriately enough, Daughter. Thanks as always to @jason-h-abbott.bsky.social and the SFS crew.💖

Still a few hours left to get your flash, poetry, short stories and so on in to the fabulous magazine #SciFanSat 👽🐉 on the subject of "Moon" before 11:59 PM! I've just submitted two pieces, one fantasy🐉 flash that revisits characters from Issue 22 (IYKYK), and one piece of poetry; fingers crossed!🤞

Sometimes, a cup of tea with a friend is a far more valuable use of time than any other. Thank you to one of mine, who I've not seen for a while, but who shared time with me today.💖

Powerful words.

So, although I've got a sci-fi/black humor short story in this month's #SciFanSat, and I'd LOVE for you to read it, please allow me to draw your attention to the editorial by @jason-h-abbott.bsky.social It's important, so take the time time to read it, and stay safe.💖 Free at: scifansat.com

Great piece, and #6 gave me a mental image and a half.😂😂😂😂

Delighted to have my flash sf appear once again at @scifansat.bsky.social, courtesy of editor @jason-h-abbott.bsky.social - this time, 'Flechette', a schoolroom tale that may leave you pensive. scifansat.com/bibi/?book=S... Do read the editorial, too, particularly if you're in North America.

There's still a few hours to submit to #SciFanSat for this month on the topic of "School"... I've just put in a sci-fi short story called "Vampire Four" - it was supposed to be flash fiction, but apparently I didn't know when to stop writing.🤣 Hopefully you'll get to read it soon!👽🎓 scifansat.com

I'm over the moon that #SciFanSat accepted my submission this month "Error: Critical Quantum Creation Failure"; it's an unsettling piece of sci-fi... you've been warned!😉 Can't wait to read all the other incredible authors in this month's issue. Thank you @jason-h-abbott.bsky.social and team.💖

I've been ill for a bit (better now though!) so didn't post about last month's scifansat when it was released, but a huge thank you to @jason-h-abbott.bsky.social and @scifansat.bsky.social for publishing my story last month!💖 This month's deadline is 11:59PM today, still time get your tales in!👀

Only a few more hours left to submit for this month's #SciFanSat issue, with the theme of "Voyage".👽🐉 I've slightly broken with my usual tradition and submitted a short story ("A message from The Corinthian") for consideration rather than flash fiction... it's still sci-fi horror though, obvs.😁

From my inbox. ...and people are complaining that Download this year wasn't "metal enough".🤣🤣🤣

#horrorprompt 1795 In the midst of the forest she sang. Music of the night to repel her loneliness and terror, wishing for a #ghostly_guardian to save her. What she got was... well, me. Now those melodies are atonal screams, flesh creeps from her bones, and blinded eyes see only bleak prophecies.

Most important things on the list: ✔️

"I must say, the service here is appalling. What happened to the 'The #customer is always right?'" "... in matters of taste." "Excuse me?" "That's the full quote." "Ha! Just because I want #food accompanied by a #steamed #icicle..." "And here it is." "Oh." #2WordPrompt #vssmagic #vss365

Beautifully written, as always.👏👏👏👏👏

It was a simple #gastroscopy, so I'm not sure why I had a general anaesthetic. They said my throat might hurt for a few hours, but it's been days, and it feels like something's crawling around in there. I glance in the mirror and... Oh my God, what's that coming out of my mouth? #horrorprompt 1789

"Tell me," the old blind woman said, "what's your heart's desire? What'd make your life worthwhile?" I #sighed. "I don't want for much. Some #pepper on my potato salad'd be nice though." "Would," she said, "that everyone's #dream was so simple. The world might be happier." #2WordPrompt #vss365

🤣🤣🤣🤣Brilliant!

👏👏👏👏👏👏

So visceral - perfect.👏👏👏👏

Well, I wasn't expecting that last paragraph.👀👏👏👏
