Time for a Dad story. We pulled off the very first Flights of Foundry with like, five weeks of planning, donated tech, & a whole lot of logistics. And as we came down to the last week I was getting frantic. I talked to my dad a couple times a week, and on that weekly call he said "Honey, what's up?"

There never seems to be a good time for anything online lately so I'm just going to throw this out here now: I am looking for more work! I don't mean writing (though that too, sure!), but in the vein of the work I do for the Le Guin Foundation: organizational, practical, assistant-y, bookish work.

Award-winning #author of the Dandelion Dynasty @kyliu99.bsky.social discusses his new near-future thriller 'All That We See or Seem' which centres around a young hacker. Read the interview: www.bloomsbury.com/uk/discover/...

Well, OwlCrate did this edition right. All That We See or Seem by @kyliu99.bsky.social #BookMail #BookSky

I had a great time meeting readers and chatting with Alex Chua at Book Bar about ALL THAT WE SEE OR SEEM last night. Though it was raining, the store was packed! Come to the Book Bar and support Singapore authors!

Amazing visit to the ArtScience Museum. Another World Is Possible shows us hopeful visions of the future. Thank you to Honor Harger and Joshua Lau for this wonderful act of visioneering.

My gratitude to Kinokuniya Singapore and the staff for making my book talk on ALL THAT WE SEE OR SEEM such a success! I loved meeting readers and talking about the book with Hwee Goh. And I heard so many thoughtful questions and moving stories from readers. You make all the work worth it!

“What finally enables ALL THAT WE SEE OR SEEM to succeed as an intellectual thriller – as well as near-future SF–is that Liu’s own sense of wonder is never far from the surface, and never less than infectious.” @garykwolfe reviews @kyliu99.bsky.social

These stories are peak. Go read them; you'll thank me.

If you need to set in a good stock of short stories for some introvert time this season, I had two science fiction pieces out this year that I'm quite proud of and hope you get a chance to enjoy. johnpmurphy.net/2025/11/19/n...

Celebrated novelist @kyliu99.bsky.social tells @futurologypod.bsky.social he believes AI will be a transformative technology like the camera was for motion pictures — it will herald a new art form "that allows people to play with subjectivities & to craft their own fictions."

I'm reading Ken Liu's (@kyliu99.bsky.social) _All That We See or Seem_ right now, and it's so great to read sf by someone who understand AI and extrapolates well, even with artists. And the hacker woman is 💋. #sf
