**JUNE SOLARPUNK BOOKCLUB** this weekend! *The Beginning Comes After the End* by Rebecca Solnit Saturday, June 20th, 4pm ET (online) Jitsi Meet link: meet.jit.si/June2026Sola... Solarpunk Future! Discord: discord.gg/Wf4DbBrgB #booksky

Writing about a better future is hard when people don't even realize that it's illegal to homeless, that cities are full of hostile architecture, that simply leaving people who have nothing alone is currently revolutionary. They see a future where climate refugees are given tents & think it's bleak.

Need a read? This optimistic sff collection from Third Flatiron is free to read (or pay what you want to support a small press) #scifi #fantasy #hopepunk #solarpunk #booksky www.smashwords.com/books/view/1...

Hey y’all wanna help me with something? Which color palette is working better for you? Color theory has never been my strong suit.

I am LOVING this story so far

So far, this press has been putting out terrific work. Definitely a submission opportunity worth looking into #ecofiction #clifi #solarpunk #novella

I’m minding my own business, cooking dinner, son sprints past, crying. Half a second later, here comes his twin sister shouting after him “I’m sorry I cursed your chicken okay?” …maybe I’ll let them resolve this one on their own

A cool thing that happened! @tractorbeamearth.bsky.social partnered with UFMS, a Brazilian public university in Mato Grosso do Sul, to translate their stories to Portuguese. My story, Maitake-by-the-sea, translated by Leandro Vicente, is now out. tractorbeamearth.substack.com/p/translatio...

If anyone wants to help fight back, there's a petition that's been launched to push back on this disgusting idea. Even if you don't live in the area, fighting back against the construction of AI data centres is an absolute necessity for preventing further ecological catastrophe.

For their first short story collection, "The Wildcraft Drones," author T.K. Rex assembled a collection of #SciFi #CliFi #Solarpunk stories all set on the same fictional world. To learn more, check out this exclusive interview. paulsemel.com/exclusive-in... 📖🪐🤖

I have been marinating with this story idea for days and it finally just…clicked. Buuuuut now that means I have to stop procrastinating and actually write it…
