It’s 5pm. Quitting time. Noah shuts down his workstation, gathers his things, picks up Oscar and places him on the shelf. He walks by Linus’ desk and they walk to the elevator together.
Linus asks, “You going to see your girl tonight?”
“Yup.”
“What’s her name?”
“Anna.” -

I have been sitting on this story for 10 years. I just need to put it out into the world; maybe doing that will compel me to finish it.

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.

Apparently I have too much time on my hands, because I’ve gone and finally finished a short story. 😇
“State of Correction” is now up on my Ko-Fi (completely free to read):
-> https://ko-fi.com/post/State-of-Correction-U5G826QY95It’s a dystopian little tale about trans people, authoritarianism, resistance, and the stubborn human refusal to abandon one another in the dark.
It’s angry. It’s bleak. It has rifles, rain, drones, government oppression, and things like that.
So, you know. Light bedtime reading. 💜
If you enjoy my writing, do have a peek, and perhaps buy the chronically under-caffeinated enby a coffee while you’re there. ☕💜

Can anyone recommend a book by Susan Kaye Quinn for me to start with. I thought I'd seen folks talking about her books on here but I can't find it now.
(Or other writers of solar punk, lunar punk, hopepunk, grimmer utopias, or other speculative fiction that's neither full nightmare nor toxically unrealistic positivity?)

Happy birthday to the incomparable British writer #MJohnHarrison, born #OTD in 1945. His books are in almost constant rotation here, and it’s no exaggeration to say I’d probably see the world in a very different way were it not for his work.
Yes, I have multiple editions of The Course of the Heart. Can you ever have *too many* editions of one of the greatest novels ever written?
Many happy returns, Mike!

Scopro, spulciando sul blog di Davide Mana, che la periodica stroncatura di un intero genere, da parte di qualcuno che il genere l'ha sfiorato appena, è storia vecchia.
https://strategieevolutive.wordpress.com/2016/03/24/il-fantasy-e-finito-fatevene-una-ragione/
Questo post è del 2016, la rivista dell'articolo originario non c'è più, neppure Davide, però il suo blog è lì e dovremmo leggerlo di più. Bonus qui, in particolare, una ragguardevole cronologia del fantasy letterario anglosassone.

When Literary Titan Put My Book on Their Podcast
There are certain moments in an author's journey that stand out forever. Publishing a book is already a surreal experience. For years, a story exists only in your imagination. It lives inside your head. Then, eventually, you take that idea and turn it into something physical. You write the words, edit the manuscript, format the pages, create the cover, and finally release it into the world. But once a book is released, something else happens. You have to let go. The story that was once […] -
