There are some jabronis out there claiming all writers use AI. That’s horseshit. Our writers, editors, and artists do not, nor will we ever. Stories for humans should be written by humans, not a slop machine of stolen ideas.

I guess I need to add a ‘tool for warmongers’ bullet point at the bottom

I got a chance to read and blurb an advanced copy. It is so good! I expect nothing else from Jo, but she navigates humanity, economics, indigenous and invasive species so beautifully that it was a pleasure to endorse this one. Go weeds! Go, novella, go!

Okay hear me out: NARNIA IN SPACE Yeah there’s no Turkish Delight or satyrs or heavy Christian allegory but there’s THIS COVER and HOPE and the writing is so good we read it in a single sitting and bought it immediately. You can too! hornedlarkpress.com/product/the-...

I'm so gratified by all the folks who've had wonderful things to say abt advance copies of The Final Chronicle of Yeneh. Here's one: M.E. Garber kindly beta read a draft, and immediately asked if she could read and blurb the final. 💜 Preorder it here! hornedlarkpress.com/product/the-...

Shiny! I've gotten to read an early copy of this and highly commend it. Do go and preorder it and help spread the world. It's boldly anticolonial and an interesting swirl of portal fantasy into a science fiction story.

It's HEEEEERE!!! Look at this cover. Isn't it beautiful? @kiwifruitbird.bsky.social's art just brilliantly captures the yeheneh (the "fantasy" beings from the story-within-a-story books) and the whole vibe.

A thing about watching the Olympics I really like is how no one ever tells me to bet on anything

Hey ok so now I get to show you my newest beer label illustration. This is more colors than have been on all previous Off Color labels combined.

It is a HUGE HECKIN DELIGHT—“a gnarly, adrenaline-packed sprint of a tale,” in fact, and we are obviously of the opinion that everyone should read it

Aw yeah, absolutely. Would love to see our books in such a spinner rack!

A DUBIOUS CLAMOR, out from @hornedlarkpress.com this fall, is about an ex-harpy, her harpy ex-girlfriend, her nonbinary fashion icon pal, an opera singer, and an opinionated sword fighting back against the authoritarian baddies. Afterwards (and at several points throughout) there's cake.

We agree that horned larks are cuties. This is a lovely painting!

We cannot wait for the day when the fascists meet consequences.
