Meet Lia - she’s a succubus in a symbiotic relationship with the city she prowls in, trying to save the woman she loves from a desperate bargain with a demon. Meet her in the @scyllapublishing.bsky.social anthology “Who Am I?”. Thanks @kholbatar.bsky.social for the pic straight from my brain!

Hi I just want to SHOUT about this from Shannon !!! Lovecraft meets Little House on the Prairie--y'all we are NOT READY for this!

PM official as of yesterday evening! Can’t to venture back to 1866 with y'all to meet (and hopefully survive) Della Halloran. but be warned—out on those rolling plains, the stars shine too brightly, the wind never stops whispering, and maybe, just maybe, something sleeps beneath the grasses 🌾🩸

This poem is one of the things I am proudest of writing over the course of March-Nov 2020. I've grown dahlias every year since, and think of my grandmother with every bloom. It is incredibly special to see it out in the world!

New today from Reckoning X, our 10th anniversary issue: "On Leafing" by @dyanisabin.bsky.social, a poem about living through crisis, grieving, and growing into the person who can carry on your ancestors' principles: reckoning.press/on-leafing/

Cover art for Reckoning X by Mónica Robles Corzo, featuring a fish, a human, a snake, some mushrooms, and the tail of a fox in a semicircle surrounded by curlicues representing communication, with a big black X in the middle, against a white background.

It is July. Grandma reports on her evening news viewing, grief spoken between the flowers of our gardens. Too hot to sleep, midnight, I walk to the lake, check for cops, the algae bloom report... --hope y'all will read this long, gorgeous COVID-lockdown elegy by @dyanisabin.bsky.social

@antonhur.com I am going through my list of great books I read this year for Hugo nominations and I wondered if Red Sword would be novel or novella length?! (I think it is over 40K but I am not sure!) I absolutely loved it, so I want to make sure I'm putting it in the right category! <3

Those who know me know I was highly critical of what I saw as some of the rhetorical excesses of the campus protests. Khalil and I wld probably get into a spat immediately. It's all the more important for people who believe as I do to say clearly, the protections of the law are for everyone.

A federal judge in NY has blocked any effort by the Trump administration to deport Mahmoud Khalil – whose arrest and imminent deportation Trump celebrated on Turth Social today — until further proceedings play out. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Congratulations to everyone on the long list of Rhysling Award nominees! Are you looking for nominees for the 2025 Special Hugo Award for Best Poem? This could be a good starting point--nominations end March 15!

SF & F Poetry Assn@sfpoetry.bsky.social · 2y ago

Announcing the 2025 Rhysling Award Nominees for short and long poem! This "long list" of nominees will be narrowed down by a jury, and those poems will be included in the 2025 Rhysling Anthology, from which final selections will be made. Find all of the nominees here: sfpoetry.com/rhysling.html

It's now that time of year again that I am beefing with this one (1) particular squirrel who likes to use my patio for things, usually my plants for sunflower seed storage. Today though? They just ripped the tassels off my outdoor pillows and yes, I am sure it's so cute and fluffy in its nest. BUT

SwiftOnSecurity@swiftonsecurity.com · 2y ago

Oh! She has! In at least one interview she talked about the briefings she's received on counter-intelligence. She has made music videos to click tracks instead of audio so it wouldn't leak. Taylor Swift is a legitimate security expert like almost nobody in the world. She has to be. She's the target.

Piers Cawley@pdcawley.bsky.social · 2y ago

I just want a serious journalist to ask actual Taylor about InfoSec. She’s sufficiently impressive I wouldn’t be surprised if she gave a cogent answer. Like Guy Goma in reverse.

Kaleidotrope@kaleidotrope.bsky.social · 2y ago

It does seem very strange for this to be a one-time, Seattle-only special Hugo category, especially given the vibrancy (but the nonetheless under-read vibrancy) of the sff poetry field.

Holly Lyn Walrath@hollylynwalrath.bsky.social · 2y ago

A few speculative poets and I are in conversation about proposing a permanent poetry Hugo this year, with the goal of getting it on the ballot for future years. Speculative poetry is a huge part of the SFF community. If anyone has experience that could be helpful, I'd love to hear your ideas.

Hi folks! If you're a climate researcher whose work has previously benefited from NIH funding, or whose work is currently being affected in any way by the freezes, I'd love to chat. Feel free to DM or email!

Read aggressively, read broadly, try to figure out how the writers you admire pull off their tricks. This will help you more than any workshop or MFA program, but more importantly it will fill you with the love for this stuff you absolutely must have in order to endure the bullshit

Aysha SPX hangover@ayshaufarah.bsky.social · 2y ago

you always see people saying that there's no shortcut to becoming a good writer, you just have to write, and that's absolutely true. but there is another thing you could be doing and that's read as much as possible.
