One book I picked is an interesting looking little volume from @lunapress.bsky.social — The Kirk, the Deil and the Grue Atween: An Exploration of Scottish Gothic Fiction by Barbara Stevenson. I’m looking flawless forward to reading that.

Sunday, 10-11am: Creating New Folklore in Panel 2 with @shaunalawless.bsky.social @georgiasummers.bsky.social, Helen Grant & Barbara Stevenson Sunday 11am-12pm: Author Care for Agents and Publisher in the Flame Tree Room, with @lunapress.bsky.social, Daniel Walsh, Molly Ker Hawn & Zui Ning Chang.

IT'S ME. Returning to my beloved Luna Press, who first opened the door to publishing for me. This book is one I am so proud of, guys, it's strange & hopeful & sad, and I'm so glad it gets to live 🖤

A little indulgent start of the day. I must start the journey one more time… This is because the soundtrack of #Skyrim plays on repeat in the office, especially during book production. The call gets stronger and so you create another Dovahkiin. You know how it goes…

It's a series but you don't have to read them in order. Dip in, try one, then move on to another Horror topic, or even one in SF or Fantasy. From @lunapress.bsky.social & authored by me and @vallescurarule.bsky.social. Widely available in paperback and ebook: linktr.ee/specficforne... #writing
