Great review of “The Mune” by Sue Dawes, from @goldsf.bsky.social.

“The Mune” is our newest Gold SF title. 30 Victorian women - “surplus” mothers - are shipwrecked on an island in a parallel universe. To survive, they must create a new society. How will they shake off the patriarchal chains that bound them & raise their children to be free?

“When poet Jessy Randall started researching the lives of female scientists, she became angry. The team at Lost Women of Science can certainly relate. Female scientists rarely got the recognition they deserved.” Listen here: www.lostwomenofscience.org/conversation... #MathematicsForLadies

Gold SF is looking for submissions! Intersectional feminist sf!

My friend Alexandra has a book coming out in May! I read a chapter in workshop many moons ago & I've been excited ever since—check it out if you're into climate fiction & dark Shakespearean retellings!

Coming soon! “Merchant” by #AlexandraGrunberg #newbooks #Sf #feminist #intersectional #NewWriting @unamccormack.bsky.social @sffoundation.bsky.social @goldsmithspress.bsky.social www.gold.ac.uk/goldsmiths-p...

Working on an intersectional feminist SF book you think would be a great fit for Gold SF? Initial submissions c.15k words, full ms (if requested) max 80k. We are particularly keen to see formally experimental novels. We'd love to hear from you! Submission info: www.gold.ac.uk/goldsmiths-p...

one of my friends here, @sjgroenewegen.bsky.social, had a novel out last year with the excellent @goldsf.bsky.social series. THE DISINFORMATION WAR has been haunting me since i read it, because it is so timely & necessary a story. in the us, order from MIT press: mitpress.mit.edu/978191338080...

A wickedly funny, feminist take on the lives and work of women who resisted their parents, their governments, the rules and conventions of their times, and sometimes situations as insidious as a lack of a women's bathroom in a college science building. #MathematicsForLadies #WomenInSTEM

Hilarious, heart-breaking, and perfectly pitched, these carefully researched poems about historical women in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine will bring you to both laughter and outrage in just a few lines.

The one that started it all… our very first book, published back in 2022 and still going strong: “Mathematics for Ladies: Poems on Women in Science”. #JessyRandall @mitpress.bsky.social @goldsmithspress.bsky.social @unamccormack.bsky.social #MathematicsForLadies mitpress.mit.edu/978191338048...

been meaning to tell @goldsf.bsky.social that seminary co-op, one of my favorite local bookeries, prominently stocks your books!

Who will survive when the world is destroyed? Can stories from the distant past teach us how to change a dismal present? “Merchant” shifts perspective between three survivors of a flooded world as they try to navigate the threat of mass starvation. Coming in May… @mitpress

'"The Disinformation War" is a novel of ideas... a Wyndham-style quiet dystopia where a small group, in a world that’s changed, have to find a way through it. Really interesting & terrifyingly plausible –food for thought. I am intrigued what Groenewegen has in store for us next.' #RunAlongTheShelves
