🌈🚀💫Queer & trans* SFF poets: share your work pub'd this September! Drop the title/link for your recent poetry to be included in the monthly Queer Spec Poetry Roundup on Stardust & Verse! Originals & reprints welcome; feel free to interpret queer/trans* and speculative broadly. Shares appreciated!
This magazine's community has been a huge support to me, and their content is incredible. If you can, throw them some support as they actively work to fight a ban on their publication.
OTHERSIDE@othersidespec.bsky.social · 5d agoHappy Banned Books Week AND Anti-Prime Day! We've spent this week fighting with Amazon, who blocked Issue 3... because a stylized illustration of a statue = porn, at least if you're a queer publication. The best way to support us is directly. Code ANTIPRIME gets you 15% off subscriptions this week.
When you're thinking about banned books this week, please also consider banned themes. There's so much soft censorship-- i.e. authors of color/queer folks getting low print runs/no marketing budgets. Proving that people still want to read at-risk topics and authors is part of fighting book bans too!
It's #BannedBooksWeek! Time to dive into the banned books on your TBR, hype the banned books you love, request that your libraries buy banned books, and send messages of support to authors whose works are under attack. Let's goooooooo!!!

This remains one of my all-time favorite speculative fiction poems. I'm sure a lot of spiritual teachers wish they could deliver a call to repentance as directly to the moral jugular as this little mermaid poem.
Nico Martinez Nocito 🏳️⚧️@nicowritesbooks.bsky.social · 2w agoMy favorite work is my poem "The Mermaid Speaks of Social Justice from the Bathtub," a weird fantasy exploration of complicity in societal injustice published by @strangehorizons.bsky.social! You can read it here: strangehorizons.com/wordpress/po...

9. A kaleidoscopic flash from @sarahgracetuttle.bsky.social where a woman is blessed with rainbow zombie fungus and the desperate need to share her new obsession with the world. 10. A wageslave horror from @parkeriswriting.bsky.social with a woman selling her brain processes to keep her son alive.
Writers, if you are against AI, do not put your writing into ANY tool that is itself AI. Not to check grammar, not to "prove" you wrote it yourself. Everything you give them becomes part of their data, even if it's only to "improve their service" or whatever BS they tell you.
Blessed Mabon / Fall Equinox to everyone celebrating the wheel of the year in the Northern Hemisphere! Happy Spring to my friends below the equator!

Hey friends, if you have any books in the Anthropic settlement, please go read @courtneymilan.com & @victoriastrauss.com's timelines! There are some publisher hijinks afoot including multiple publishers "accidentally" claiming 100% of a book's settlement, or claiming 50% on reverted titles.

In A Pulse Of Starlight by @sarahgracetuttle.bsky.social, the narrator's wife has always been different, always obsessed with space. The two go on a cruise beyond the asteroids and she leaves for her destiny - but that's not the end of the story.
Translunar Travelers Lounge@translunartl.bsky.social · 2mo agoThis @gwenckatz.bsky.social story has Carly and Alexis as caretakers of the titular Drakelings - who may be young dragons or may just be needy, difficult creatures. A story of slippery history, of grant money, and of trying to get anything done while toddlers demand attention.
