  1. That moment when you take the trouble to translate another story for #SciFanSat, very short this time as there's no time for more, only to find out you've missed the submission deadline. Thought it was today, for some reason. It wasn't.

    *sigh*

    Oh well... story of my life, pretty much...

  2. Hey! It's #SciFanSat day and I'm there again, this time with a #ScienceFiction story that was quite a challenge to translate to English.

    Hope the effort was worth it.

  3. So I've got a short #sciencefiction story in the latest issue of #SciFanSat, under the theme of "disaster", and I invite you to take a peek if you're into that sort of thing.

    Also, I've got there a new item for my collection of weird stuff happening to the things I publish, as the author name and story title got typoed, as in reversed, making it seem the story is called "Jorge Candeias" and the author is "The Laugh".

    Not so. But quite funny.

  4. The latest issue of #SciFanSat is out! This month, it's a collection of poetry, tiny and longer stories around the theme of time.

    This month's speculative poetry, microfiction and short stories are set in libraries. Maybe a haven from seasonal stress... or maybe not!

  8. “I can’t believe they hired an octopus!”

    “I don’t know, Ankh-Morpork has an orang-utan librarian. Both can really reach and sort the bookshelves!”

    “But, their tentacles get the card catalogue all, moist.”

    “That’s intentional: It’s a dewy decimal system.”

  17. The firefish school around them, ablaze and swimming through the night air.

    “Will they hurt us?” Ian asks.

    The young witch sits beside the squire. “But, what handsome company.”

  19. Sundown came, the lunar shifts happened, and the couple dealt with the inconvenience of fixing dinner as werewolves in a too-small kitchen.

    He chopped onions. “Not mine! We stayed in and played board games.”

  28. Outside, methane begins to freeze against the side of my crashed ship. Inside, the cats lie on me with unease.

    “It’s fine, Beans,” I say petting them. “It’s fine, Cornbread.”

    Twelve hours of life support remain. Distress call still unanswered.

    “It’s fine.”
