Agreed with everything here!!!

It’s here: the cover for the UK edition of VILE LADY VILLAINS, coming out April 02 2026 by Penguin Michael Joseph🖤

after we find out exactly what he did, i want to know the names of everybody who helped cover up what he did. everybody.

Honestly, one of the great American poems. Arguably the great American poem.

it's been so many months since I read it, but my brain finally slowed down to actually finish my thoughts on METAL FROM HEAVEN by @sapphomancer.bsky.social IT'S GREAT IF YOU LOVE LESBIANS, FANTASY, AND LESBIAN FANTASY jowritesfantasy.me/2025/11/13/r...

I'll get a proper post up but... this is my award-eligible short story for 2025! 🥳 It is short and weird and a bit desperate, and encapsulated my feelings at the start of this lamentable year. Enjoy??

Jasmine Crockett: "If people decide that they want to continue to support person who may be a pedophile themselves or a person who obviously is covering on pedophiles, that's on them. But they should at least know the devil they decided to pick."

beginning my quixotic and privileged campaign to get publishers to pay a per diem rather than asking their touring authors to carry a couple thousand dollars in credit debt and hoard paper receipts, like rats lining their nests for winter 🙏

Ugh hate to post this but bringing this back to just get us out of a “small” hole. We have money coming in but it is a struggle to get caught up Keeping the same gfm for transparency sake gofund.me/d63b5b894

The Goodreads Choice Awards are upon us & I'm honestly really staggered & thrilled to see THE RIVER HAS ROOTS made it into the first round of Fantasy picks! It's in tremendous company, & y'all should go vote for your faves if you're so inclined! The first round runs from Nov 11 - 23.

I'm so proud of this episode of Our Opinions Are Correct. It's legit fascinating that Del Toro went from a Pinocchio movie to a Frankenstein movie, and it's fun to think about how those stories differ, and what they have in common. Please give us a listen! <3

Current projects include: *NDA for a cool TTRPG project *Whalefall divinities, corrupted ecosystems, and a young pissed off sacrifice-turned-possible-angel *"Are we the baddies?" meme by way of shithead spren and hapless youth *Nesi and Fox 2: Electric Bugaloo

Reminder: A lot of great books published this year during absolutely bonkers news & world event times. That squashes people talking about them. Keep buying books please, keep borrowing them from libraries, and for the love of all that's good, talk about them. Post about them. 📚

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

The room is almost all elephant. Almost none of it isn’t. Pretty much solid elephant. So there’s no room to talk about it. -Kay Ryan, “The Elephant in the Room” #everynightapoem

"This could take down Democrats, too." I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office. Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.

On August 12, 1971, 16-year-old me mailed the first story I ever wrote off on its first submission to my dream market, F&SF. My tale was quickly rejected. On July 17th, 2025, I finally sold a story to that magazine. Here's why I felt I had to withdraw that story. www.scottedelman.com/wordpress/20...

one last boost for the morning crowd (I'm very excited about this, naturally)

Both of these issues have big reveals that, if you're a fan who savours the reveals in real time, you may not want risking being spoiled, so I'd suggest priortising reading them. I think they're both neat.

Check out that line up! Wicked excited to have a story in the latest issue of @3lobedmag.com!!! My story is available on the 18th, but you can read the first 3 stories right now :)

This game is absolutely gorgeous, I’ve been avidly watching the layout evolve and there are two page spreads in here that made me gasp aloud with delight. If you’re interested in playing games in settings that predate the medieval period by a good margin, run don’t walk to grab a copy

I don’t do the Amazon-Industrial Complex so a Goodreads review is a non-starter for me, but I loved this little book. I’m pretty sure I was made aware of its existence here on Bluesky, so it seems appropriate to yell about it here. Like fables? Here’s a new one for you.

Coming up on two months out in the world, and I'm gobsmacked at how many people have read and reviewed this lil story of time travel and trickster gods. I really didn't know if Audition For The Fox would ever receive this kind of attention, and I'm just grateful as hell <3

Happy paperback day to Dead Girls Don’t Dream! Now with a bonus playlist in the back, which are all songs I both listened to incessantly while writing this, and songs that are thematically or vibe-ally resonant. Available wherever books are sold, and signed copies thru @astoriabookshop.bsky.social

The far right is obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Musk keeps posting about "hobbits" because modern scientific racism owes more to fantasy worlds and gaming systems than genetic science, and they see both as effective mediums for right-wing propaganda www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Guys I love this book so much, you know I’m a slut for worldbuilding!!!! GO GET IT

you can't just bring back austin powers. the franchise wrote itself into a corner after he volunteered to stay behind forever in the shagadelic dimension to save foxxy and vanessa. they already brought him back once without explaining how he escaped from fembot island, the audience won't buy it

I would like to see one thousand movies about disabled characters by disabled directors before I see another movie about a guy who became disabled because he did a bad thing that he feels bad about. Moral injury is exhausting to watch on constant repeat.
