Hello! I am popping during my irl Pride activities to say that my Queer Caribbean novella seems to be on sale at kobo for 3.99. That's in the US and Canada in their respective currencies. A good buy at the end of Pride and Caribbean Heritage Month. www.kobo.com/ca/en/ebook/...

this is Paul. He hangs out next to my office most days.

Out of interest I made my new collection of short stories free on Smashwords for a week. Then I did a few different social media posts spaced over a week. Obviously your own mileage will vary depending on lots of things, but this is what happened...

A few days left for a free copy! #BookSky #readingcommunity #writingcommunity

This poem should be read. Patrick should be remembered, and we should all WANT to be better for each other. Be the bridge, not the undertow.

I know I'm preaching to the choir, but the student who wrote this poem dictated it because he had a genetic condition that caused severe dystonia. No AI, just accessibility tools.

I agree, also Suzan’s writing is amazing!

Suzan the chalant goth@sillysyntax.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Reposting! It remains Caribbean Hertiage and Pride month. I will say, while I've seen a lot of SFFH outlets talk about Pride, (Yay) I've barely seen any SFFH outlets mention Caribbean Heritage Month. Which kinda makes me sad. The region does produce great spec fic. Buy our books! Mines are gay!

@bethgoder.bsky.social is wise

After reading with Matt at Story Hour, I immediately went out and bought his collection. I was blown away by his creative concepts and beautiful prose in the stories from his reading, and I'm looking forward to more in his collection.

Where can you get five stories—read by their authors, no less!—in under an hour? The latest Story Hour! Enjoy these bite-size tales from Beth Goder and Matt Tighe! @bethgoder.bsky.social @mktighewrites.bsky.social youtu.be/TnJgjgHNkXM

I mean, who could say no to doom-spotting? Certainly not us. Samantha Murray's story in our 11th issue is a sweet and bittersweet story of adolescence, and of course, doom:

The Stars That Fall - Small Wonders

When Sara asks me if I wanted to go doom-spotting I say yes. Of course I say yes.

Currently reading MARKET OF LOSS by @mktighewrites.bsky.social A gorgeous, moving and deeply resonating speculative fiction. From a king of horror is a new genre but just as brilliantly written. #amreading #speculativefiction #arc #bookstoread
