The title is the warning. This Strange Horizons review places Wendy Waring’s novel squarely in our moment of wealth inequality -- when we must decide who our society serves, what we owe one another, and what kind of future we will build.

Friends, I moved my newsletter from mailchimp to ghost to use the least fascist platform I could find!

Had to manually move my list over. I'll be sending a new newsletter (not the same as my blog posts) by week's end.

If you don't get my infrequent newsletter, care to sign up? https://hope-magic-solarpunk.ghost.io/

About the art process behind my book covers…and a question...

I began abstract painting around 2015–2016 after many years of realistic pen and ink sketching connected to my architectural work. Over time, colour, geometry, and nature shifted my practice toward abstraction.

In 2022, I gave an artist talk at the Lundt‑Glover Gallery in Chatham, NJ, hosted by the Art League of the Chathams, where I discussed my work at the time, including digital developments in NFTs and my decision not to pursue that direction.

Later that year, I began the 27‑painting series that my current ecofiction trilogy covers are based on, using four panels from that show as the starting point for the newer work.

Three good things:
1. Making art.
2. Sharing art.
3. Selling art to pay for more art supplies!!!

Watch the full 38‑minute talk here: https://youtu.be/X400L4JI-LQ

The piece shown, Wellness, was part of the solo show and later became the cover for our ASEI Arts international charity anthology, Anthology House Vol. 2, created to benefit UNICEF.

A question for my art and book lover peeps here: when you think about art and the art of book covers, what lights you up, what inspires you, and what are you drawn to reach out for?

Wtem! Nowa notka na blogu, choć tak naprawdę to nie taka nowa, bo była praktycznie gotowa już w marcu i nie pamiętam, czemu jej wtedy nie wrzuciłem (a potem Działy Się Rzeczy).

W każdym razie, piszę o zbiorze opowiadań "The Other Shore" Rebekki Campbell (wyd. @StelliformPress ) o którym dowiedziałem się z Mastodona (choć autorkę znam z "Nowej Fantastyki"). Ogólnie bardzo dobra rzecz, nie tylko dla tych zainteresowanych ekologią i klimatem (bo też nie wszystkie opowiadania skupiają się na tych tematach) - to po prostu dobra fantastyka (SF, weird fiction, odrobina horroru, może nawet i fantasy czy rzeczy które ciężko zaklasyfikować).

A New Faith <genre: hopeful cl...

Publishers Weekly has released a nice review for THE HUNGER OF THOSE WHO BUILT IT, which is Wendy Waring's literary solarpunk novel coming in September. It's solarpunk but make it darker - think Emily St. John Mandel x Kim Stanley Robinson in a gritty future Paris. https://www.publishersweekly.com/9781998466054

Byłem na otwarciu... znaczy się, na premierze antologii "Fikcja klimatyczna w Polsce" od Magazyn Biały Kruk na Bazyliszku. I czułem się trochę jakby przeniesiono mnie z powrotem do 2019. Sala - nie ta największa w "Alternatywach", ale wciąż - wypełniona po brzegi ludźmi, których obchodzi problem klimatu i dyskutują, co z nim zrobić, jak o nim mówić i pisać. Bardzo przyjemne doświadczenie, zwłaszcza po przebywaniu przez parę dni u rodziców (to jest ta frakcja polskich "katolików", dla których większym autorytetem zdaje się być Cejrowski niż papież, zwłaszcza ten poprzedni). Tak, wiem, że to bańka, goście i odwiedzający Bazyliszka wydają się być po jednej stronie spektrum politycznego, a tym bardziej, ci, którzy przychodzą na panele i prelekcje o klimacie, ale wciąż.

Antologia jak widać zażarła. Dzień po premierze miałem prelekcję o polskim climate fiction i przy okazji zachęciłem do podejścia na stanowisko Wydawnictwo IX po papierową wersję i od widowni dowiedziałem się, że już się skończyły. Oczywiście wersja pdf dalej wisi na stronie Białego Kruka za darmo, więc zachęcam do ściągnięcia. Wersja papierowa ma się chyba pojawić jeszcze na niektórych konwentach i w sklepie Wydawnictwa IX (na razie nie widzę), więc zachęcam do śledzenia Białego Kruka.

Sama prelekcja wyszła chyba całkiem nieźle, mimo że publiczność była dość niewielka (za to zaangażowana - sporo komentarzy od @Leszek_Karlik
). Po fakcie zorientowałem się, że zupełnie zapomniałem wspomnieć o "Dzieciach jednej pajęczycy" Olgi Niziołek, a także planowanej antologii "Solarpunk" od wydawnictwa Abyssos - co w sytuacji, kiedy polskie climate fiction to 5 książek na krzyż, trochę robi różnicę.

2️⃣ Getting books to readers is the heart of independent publishing.
3️⃣ Readers! You make the whole ecosystem real.

Rail: A High Speed Adventure is now open for paperback presale worldwide. 🔗 https://bit.ly/3ThRP6t

About Rail:
Drawn into a globe‑spanning infrastructure proposal with uncertain motives, a designer confronts ecological ethics, corporate ambition, and the meaning of home as her past and future converge.

Words from Global architect Raya Ani:
"Building on The Erenwine Agenda, this work expands the conversation between architecture, environment, and responsibility — moving from personal conflict into global systems and their consequences."

Ebooks are available now, worldwide.

Will they take the good and bad aspects of their current lives to the new land? Or will they develop new ways of peaceful living? Will the rest of the world allow them to live in peace?

In this novel, set in the near future, I explore a world in which a large number of people move away from dangerous places to a safer one.

So excited to share the new book covers for my ecofiction trilogy! These were designed by Canadian artist and graphic designer Laurie Landry, who artfully incorporated my paintings. I worked on the trilogy for 15 years and the paintings (part of a series of 27 large panels) for 5 years...

The first two novels, The Erenwine Agenda: A Hydraulic Fracturing Love Story, and Otter Coast: A Medical Marijuana Mystery, were previously published and will be reprinted with the new covers. Rail: A High Speed Adventure, will be published for the first time in a few weeks.

What connects fracking, marijuana and infrastructure, you might ask? They are threaded together by the singular journey of the protagonist, Amalia Sengupta Erenwine, who begins as an intern working in architecture, then pursues her licensing exams, and finally, works as a registered architect. Her visionary states lead her across regions, countries and continents, culminating in the final novel, Rail. Though a trilogy, these can be read (and people are currently reading) standalone, not in order. I'll share more with next steps and notes from the studio.

For now: three good things, in Mastodon style: 1. inspired ideas 2. great collaborators 3. easy platforms on which to share them-thank you @PaulaToThePeople ! @ThreeGoodThings

What if the next extinction event isn’t an ending—
but a reboot?

Ash clouds rising kilometres high. Warming oceans passing tipping-points.
Maybe the planet doesn’t need our saving—it needs ours to stand aside.

Inversion explores what happens when Earth stops waiting for us to change.

What if the next extinction event isn’t a tragedy—
but a reboot?

We keep talking about saving the planet as if it’s a moral duty.
Maybe the planet’s the one doing the saving—resetting the balance we broke.

Inversion asks what happens when Earth stops waiting for us to change.

Und wenn wir halt jetzt mal beim #lesen sind, absolut lesenswert ist #KimStanleyRobinson mit #GreenEarth das ist eine verdichtung von drei früheren #clifi romanen um eine clique von wissenschaftlern, buddhisten, und jeder menge #politicos, die in washington an der rettung der welt laborieren

Es ist viel wissenschaft drin, ich schließe mich nicht den lösungen des #geoengineering an. Es wird auch etwas sehr ausführlich alltägliches beschrieben (wer es mag, kann hier genießen) Aber robinsons gesamtaufriss einer welt im zeichen der #klimakrise ist exemplarisch.

#maggiegee ist am 2. november 75 jahre alt geworden. #HappyBirthdayMaggieGee

Sie wirkt ganz frisch, schreibt garantiert auch weiter in ihrem unverwechselbaren stil. Hier noch einmal eine erinnerung an #Flood #DieFlut

das wasser steigt den menschen bis zum hals, aber sie bleiben was sie immer waren
