as a new month of creativity has begun, a reminder that if you liked any of the cool stuff I've made while I was traveling, you can support my writing via Patreon or Ko-Fi!

one of my favorite stories I've penned gorgeously read, rich and wry, if you're in the mood for a slow exploration of the inevitable results of aspiring to both justice and power

The new issue of @strangehorizons.bsky.social is out! on the Podcast we have @emmiechristie33.bsky.social reading @aardwyrm.bsky.social 'Of Flowing Stone, of Liquid Gold, of Justice, Ash, and Battle'. Go listen on your preferred podcast app. strangehorizons.com/wordpress/po...

It's finally September! Do you know what that means??? Flights of Foundry is THIS MONTH. Register: flights-of-foundry.o... Let's gooooo! 🪽🪽🪽

As of 2025, @naomikritzer.bsky.social has joined an exclusive club of only 21 authors who have earned at least four Hugo Awards in the prose categories (novel, novella, novelette, short story, or series). It's the same number of wins that Heinlein managed.

It's 2025. Saying every name on the finalist card and saying every name correctly shouldn't be an aspirational goal, it should be the bare minimum of professionalism and courtesy. Mike's one of the best audio producers I've ever worked with. He's amazing. Boosting this to @laworldcon.bsky.social

In the wake of the mispronunciations at this year's Hugo's, if anyone needs technical support in creating pronunciation guides for titles/names or use of non Anglo language in any of their writing. I'll help create an audioguide you can send to any awards, narrators or for your press kit. No charge.

Less than 30 minutes! Any help toward the $25k goal to celebrate the 25 Years of Strange Horizons would be a massive help!

We've got a week to go in the Strange Horizons Fund Drive to keep us publishing in 2025! If you haven't had a chance to donate yet, it's not too late to pledge over on our Kickstarter. Thank you to everyone who has donated so far!

The world feels awful right now, but you can still come together with others to make good stuff happen !

Now just $2.5k from being baseline funded for next year. Everything the magazine does relies on reaching this goal. C’mon. If you’re able, you want to be one of the donations that makes it happen, right?

🚨🚨LAST 9 DAYS 🚨🚨 of the annual Strange Horizons fund-raiser! Still a host of rewards up for offer (see link), and we need around $4.4K more to hit our base goal. If you’ve been intending to support us this year, then the time is now! Donate here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/str...

Our Fund Drive is still live! This year's AfroSurrealism Special Issue was funded through a stretch goal during last year's Kickstarter! Here's some more from that issue: luminaries by Adebe DeRango-Adem Let Sleeping Hyenas Lie  by Rutendo Chidzodzo Read at the link in our bio!

Two weeks more to go - in order to have awesome fiction and nonfiction, please give us a chance to fund! www.kickstarter.com/projects/str...

For the evening crowd!

Thanks to the Scalzi Family Foundation @scalzifamily.foundation @scalzi.com, the next $1,000 pledged in our fund drive will be matched dollar for dollar, so donating right now has double the impact!

We are $750 away from our next landmark of $12.5K, which will see us two-thirds of the way towards securing our baseline funding for next year. To get us there: www.kickstarter.com/projects/str...

Kickstarter UPDATE! You can now choose to support the publication of a poem, story, review or artwork as an add-on, so you don't have to choose whether to get a cool signed book or support a piece of work. You also don't have to stick to supporting just one!

We've just hit our next landmark - $11K - and can therefore unlock the next piece in our fund-drive issue: Kerry Ryan interviews two titans of the genre, Nicola Griffith and Pat Cadigan. "No defeat is final" -- strangehorizons.com/wordpress/no... Please continue donating for more such pieces! 👇

We are $175 away from hitting a milestone of $11K, and publishing a set of interviews with some of the towering women writers in the field, such as Nicola Griffith and Pat Cadigan. Who will get us there? www.kickstarter.com/projects/str...
