"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!

I don't do awards eligibility posts. You think my shit was good enough to get nominated? Go get em. Appreciate you 💛 But I'm not campaigning for a damn thing. I'm out here working on what comes next.

For this week's Top Ten Tuesday, I highlight the best new-to-me authors I read for the first time in 2025, including talented writers like @mattdinniman.bsky.social @realjacksonford.bsky.social @rfkuang.bsky.social @edashtonwriting.bsky.social and more. unseenlibrary.com/2025/12/10/t...

I recently had a column run in the #CanberraWeekly, featuring three top fantasy novels of 2025, including great books by @realjacksonford.bsky.social, @anthonyryan.bsky.social and @rfkuang.bsky.social. unseenlibrary.com/2025/12/10/c...

Check out FanFiAddict's post anticipated books of 2026 (so far), feat. two books by yours truly! A lot of amazing titles here, I'm particularly excited about SISTERS OF THE LIZARD by @realjacksonford.bsky.social and ASH BLACK AND THE SEVEN WOLVES by Effie Joe Stock. fanfiaddict.com/ffas-most-an...

22nd Mar - We're closing out the season with Jackson Ford! The man who got "sh*t" into the title of multiple books, is now writing about bone-wearing raiding clans, and delights in getting fans to proclaim cheese as their god (quite rightly, too) is returning! @realjacksonford.bsky.social

For this week's Waiting on Wednesday, I highlight an awesome 2026 fantasy novel with Sisters of the Lizard by @realjacksonford.bsky.social. Sure to be a deeply entertaining and fun novel, I'm looking forward to checking it out. unseenlibrary.com/2025/11/29/w...

Let's ride, bitches

every author in the class action, please file the claim.

4 books I'm looking forward to reading, hopefully before the end of the year. All influenced by my recent trip to World FantasyCon. King Sorrow by @joe-hill.bsky.social The Bone Raiders by Jackson Ford The Salt Oracle by @rainewilson.bsky.social The Needfire by @mkhardywrites.com

Amusing fact # 2: I had to do a name change on a semi-major character and Ford was kind enough to say "oh hell yes" when I asked. bsky.app/profile/real...

Fun fact: I die in this one. They included me in the cast. Couldn't have picked a better book to be flushed out an airlock in.

Always happy to hear thoughts on casting and tunes!

First person to check THE BONE RAIDERS out of my library! No crease in the spine. Fresh new book smell. 100% awesomeness from @realjacksonford.bsky.social.

What's a weird note you made in your book research, that when you came back to it, you had absolutely no idea what it meant? I was doing research for my fantasy novel and there's a line in my notes that goes "Mongol Empire = blockchain" That's it. In its entirety.

If you're in book marketing, do NOT do this. Cold contacting an author is one thing. Sharing your entire campaign in your cold email? Why on earth would the author hire you? Here's the campaign I got (and yes, it might be chatgpt generated. It's still a very bad idea)

Who says social media doesn't sell books?

Everyone really should read The Bone Raiders

I HAVE BEEN CHEESED

@irfoxwriter.bsky.social great to meet you. Good luck with the chronic pain/superpower book. I'm rooting for you!

LO I HATH GROWN THE CULT OF CHEESE BY THREE MEMBERS THIS DAY 🧀 LET US SPREAD THE GOOD WORD OF OUR SAINTS CAMEMBERT, TALLEGIO AND MANCHEGO ACROSS THIS FAIR LAND. ALL HAIL THE CURDS

This worked!! I believe there's still one left. Join the cheese cult!!

CHEESE IS MY GOD I am not in Brighton but it can't hurt to get the word out. PRAISE CHEESES!

Look at this gorgeousness, plus my first bookstore browse in a long, long time.

I didn't know you weren't able to open one of em and go to the front and see that it was released four years before Forspoken but here we are

“The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their history.” "The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t with Her Mind" (2019) by Jackson Ford 🥚

A passage from the book "The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t With Her Mind".

friend shared this, immediately updated my settings

Books need blooper reels okay.

Let's gooooooo @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social First three people to find me and yell CHEESE IS MY GOD get a free signed copy of The Bone Raiders. Not kidding.

If you're a writer/other creator in the United States, consider creating an LLC for your business and then signing up for a local area Chamber of Commerce. Many of them have health insurance plans that pool their members and members of other CoCs to create insurance efficiencies relative to ACA.

I can't believe it either, but here we are.

Today's bloggery: #REVIEW: The Bone Raiders, by Jackson Ford

I just reviewed the highly entertaining fantasy novel, The Bone Raiders by @realjacksonford.bsky.social. An epic and fun novel that sees a group of bone covered raiders attempt to ride dragons, this is a great read that I had an awesome time with. unseenlibrary.com/2025/10/12/t...

An astute financial decision.

If this album ever gets banned for any reason... Does that make it... Horizon Forbidden West?

Very kind quote just in from @realjacksonford.bsky.social :) @solarisbooks.bsky.social #booksky

WHAT COMES BEFORE by Molly Macabre is a great little horror novella with few answers, immaculate vibes. THE BONE RAIDERS by @realjacksonford.bsky.social was an absolute banger, can't wait for more. SKYFOLD by @timmckay52.bsky.social is a fun fantasy heist novella with a neat setting.

As if on cue, the chatgpt-powered book "marketers" are oozing into my inbox. Author buddies: if someone named "Ashley Monroe" sends you an email offering to market your book, tell em to get fucked.

Gonna read a book with giant lizard monsters!

ARC REVIEW: THE BONE RAIDERS OR… WOW!!! Hello everyone! I hope your week is going well! In the last couple of days, we had some really autumnal weather, and I am pretty happy about it (going to work while it pours down is not fun, but at this moment, I don't really care), and I am quite excited to…

THE BONE RAIDERS is an epic fantasy with tons of heart, equal parts serious and fun. I had a great time in the Tapestry, and can’t wait to see what Jackson Ford does with the sequel. 🪐📚💙 #BookReview 🔗 fanfiaddict.com/review-the-b...
