NICE!

"So long as we regard a tree as an obvious thing, naturally and reasonably created for a giraffe to eat, we cannot properly wonder at it. It is when we consider it as a prodigious wave of the living soil sprawling up to the skies for no reason in particular that we take off our hats." GK Chesterton

"Monoliths of books and manuscripts rose around him. All were crammed with words; words packed as solidly as bricks in a wall. Armies of them; marching on from one page to the next without pause. He forced the pen in his tight grip a hairs’-breadth closer to the paper..." Patricia McKillip

"Reading a book is like re-writing it for yourself. You bring to a novel, anything you read, all your experience of the world. You bring your history and you read it in your own terms." Angela Carter

Fabulous book mail from @khanwong.bsky.social! Down in the Sea of Angels is here, and it can join The Circus Infinite on my shelf. Thank you, Khan! Both available from @angryrobotbooks.bsky.social. Background mixed media art for both is by me. #books #sciencefiction #scifi #sff #fantasy

Looking forward to the new Daft Punk album.

"'Oh! oh! This fiery height! Oh, my feet of fire! My burning feet of fire...' ran in far, beseeching accents of indescribable appeal this voice of anguish down the sky. Once it called - then silence through all the listening wilderness of trees." The Wendigo, Algernon Blackwood

These are a seasonal highlight.

"The ability of writers to imagine what is not the self, to familiarize the strange and mystify the familiar, is the test of their power." Toni Morrison

Well, exactly.

It's hard to explain, but somehow, certainly for me, while winning an award is marvellous, not winning isn't the polar opposite. A shortlist place is an accolade in itself.

Huge congrats to all the winners of the British Fantasy Awards! It's always an honour to get shortlisted, as much as it is to be part of this creative and vibrant community. Congrats! 🎉 britishfantasysociety.org/british-fant...

The first (1955) Danish edition of Ray Bradbury’s FAHRENHEIT 451. Later editions did not convert the title, so this is the only SI-compatible edition! 🎢

More of this sort of thing.

Happy halloween and old paintings for thee

"The power of fantastic literature lies not in the answers it dutifully provides, but in the questions. What we, as readers, seek is that with which the prophet threatens us in Deuteronomy 28:28: astonishment of the heart. On this curse we thrive." Alberto Manguel

Welcome new followers! I post about books, writing, pop culture interests, sometimes random life things. I try not to chime in on 💿🐴 unless I genuinely believe I can add value to the conversation. That's the goal anyway 😅 Currently an author, former arts funder and hula hooper. In CA? Yes on 50!

Here I am talking to the nice people at @freshfiction.bsky.social about The Sound of the Dark, Chinese food, Wales, egg custard tarts and more... #thesoundofthedark #thehollows #theravening #horrorbooks #horrorfiction @angryrobotbooks.bsky.social freshfiction.com/page.php?id=...

My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings. If you've looked upon my works and despaired please consider leaving a review on one of the major online retail sites.

An experiment in using soil & glue as material just for my own curiosity resulted in…this, whatever it is. Was thinking about Homer Sykes’ photos & Here We Come A’ Wassailing, imaging an ancient Earth spirit adorning herself in things she perceived as human from the Sutton Hoo helmet to Love Island

Excellence.

“Fantasy is nearer to poetry, to mysticism, and to insanity than naturalistic fiction is. It is a wilderness, and those who go there should not feel too safe. And their guides, the writers of fantasy, should take their responsibilities seriously." From Elfland to Poughkeepsie, Ursula K Le Guin

A mix of folk horror and true crime - if you’re me, that’s enough to draw you in - but what makes #TheSoundoftheDark by @dannythechurch.bsky.social special is the characters - especially relatable heroine Cally Darker. #BookSky TY to #NetGalley and @angryrobotbooks.bsky.social for the ARC. Review:

“She was feeling supernatural tonight. She wanted to EAT diamonds.” Nights at the Circus, Angela Carter

We love to see it.

"Lilith in the Valley of a Thousand Sculptures" Mixed media: coffee, graphite, and gold leaf on Arches paper. The first piece to surface from the Labyrinth. In pale marble, she carves a tree. The Golden Serpent coils nearby — patient, watchful.
