No One To Hold the Distant Dead, by @klschroeder.bsky.social (pub by @psychopomp.com), is a dark sci-fi novella that gives us a glimpse of hope. A reading that I recommend if you want to continue thinking after finishing the story. Full thoughts: jamreads.com/reviews/no-o... 💙📚

💔 if you have a few coins hanging around, I know firsthand that these talented, ambitious, kind, and thoughtful publishing folks would put it to excellent use.

I'm back and the highschool kids were fabulous. They brainstormed ideas with pencil and paper and talked abt story ideas, had insightful questions, asked me abt writers block, asked me how to write the middle of books asked what exactly do publishers do? Lol 💀 Girl writing/reading is not dead yet.

Everything will eventually be worn down with time. All we can do is try our best to hold on.

Friends and friendlies on here: don't stop talking about your lives and joys. I know some folk are quiet or staying away what with *everything* but posts about cats and books and funny shaped puddles are essential to us getting through it. And shouldn't be drowned out by the fash.

this is so beautiful ❤️ congratulations El!

kind of speechless to read this after years of reading Dave's excellent SF! thank you so much, im glad you're enjoying it 🤩📚 @psychopomp.com

I'm editing a new anthology of sci fi written by sex workers for @workinggirlspress.bsky.social. It's called Liquid Silver (after the club/brothel in Tank Girl) and I'm so excited to see what my SW babes are writing!

I suppose there comes a point in every project where you pile the phone, laptop, notebook, appropriate reference books, kindle, bluetooth in a big stack and then use the nunchucks on them

when did the science folk become so fashionable? i thought we were still wearing old tshirts with jokes about glycine...

Happy Friday! May I present for your consideration: buy my book? The reasons you should do this are: it's my book, and it's very good, and it has a radish and her fox wife whom she adores and also a rock determined to live her best life even if maybe she wasn't meant to have a life to live.

Do one thing every day to make the world a worse place for evil people.
