Feeling very grumpy about the void here so l've channeled that into a list of weird or weird-ish or weird-adjacent or theoretically-weird collections by Black authors (some of which I’ve read and too many of which I have not)

I said this all through the first term, all through Mueller, all through impeachment, Jack Smith, all through all of it: It only stops when the handcuffs come out.

An interview with Tanith Lee from Locus Magazine, 1998. I absolutely loved her work, especially its ahead of its time discussion of gender as at times fluid or shifting and never essentialist or simple. www.locusmag.com/1998/Issues/...

I remember sitting next to Tanith for a group author signing at Eastercon, with NG, China Mievelle, Charlie Stross and Geoff Ryman (who invited me to sit next to him). Lee was friendly to the other authors and noticeably chilly to NG.

I really think the average non-author person has no idea whatsoever how little the vast majority of writers make and how much we depend on every single sale Sometimes it feels like they don’t even actually know we exist at all

I enjoyed this queer epic fantasy. It hit all the right notes for me. Non-western world building, beautiful writing, slow burn homoeroticism. Sense of wonder, unique mythic magic and almost experimental frame stories/structures make it literary but it's still full of demons and monsters and gods.
