Check out these two story teasers from authors @emlinden.bsky.social and @andrewbelindo.bsky.social featuring a woman who isn't about to let death get in her way, and someone trapped in a time loop who keeps meeting death every 50 years.

When I am stranded in the lands of Death, two things give me hope. The first is that my baby daughter Linna isn’t here; the second is that my grandmother, somewhere, is. Grandma Orta died months ago, slumped over her old green notebook, but when she was alive she knew more than anyone about everything and she probably still does. And Linna must have survived whatever shattering thing stranded me in this place, or she’d be here with me now. I will drag my battered, breathing body out of Death and back to Linna, and my grandmother will help me.

Happy #WriterShareWednesday!! I'm one of the editors on Heavy Are The Years, an illustrated collection of SFF stories around the theme of time, and it's got 10 days left on kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bon...

A book map for Heavy Are The Years showing the cover (made by Riotbones) that reads: Three illustrated stories in one volume!

An archeological crew discovers an ancient city but the gods who were once worshiped there have turned... strange.

The eternity of a 50-year time loop, and using it to adopt the world's angriest cat, again and again.

Love and grief across generations as a young mother fights death itself to be reunited with her baby, recruiting the help of strange and familiar spirits.

Now live on kickstarter!

The first illustrated story in our Heavy Are The Years collection is "Irreparable Evolution" by K.C. Pickelsimer and @yellghoul.bsky.social An archeological crew finds something far more dangerous than ruins when they explore a long lost Dwarven city that isn't quite as empty as it seems.

Real talk from behind the scenes: we have 2 weeks to raise $8.5k in order to fund Heavy Are The Years. We've been crunching numbers just in case we fall short and we simply will not be able to print the gorgeous book we want to share with you all, not at the high quality we're hoping for, at least.

There's two weeks left to help us get this book to print! You know that WSP is a large proponent of community and helping creators thrive and succeed but we can't do that without YOUR help! Help us get these books to print! Support your fellow artists! And chocolate makers!

Next up is “Death Recoming” by @andrewbelindo.bsky.social and @careydraws.bsky.social How well would anyone handle being trapped in a 50-year time loop? This is a deeply soul-searching story about life, death, the decisions that make us who we are, and one ornery cat at the center of it all.

Our final story is “Flight Patterns of the Dead” by @emlinden.bsky.social and @hisiheyah.bsky.social When a young mother is violently torn from her baby, she'll do whatever it takes, even bargain with the strange and fickle spirits of the underworld, to escape death and reunite with her daughter.
