I'm so grateful that my slightly-better-than-expected health has allowed me to keep teaching my #WriteBeyondTheLightbulb courses. For anyone who'd like to write with me, the next one I've got scheduled is "Go With The Flow" in May: www.mattkendrick.co.uk/wbtl-go-with... 💡🌊⚓🌉🪡🧵✍️✍️✍️

If a reader dislikes your politics, then no amount of subtlety will prevent them from accusing your story of not being subtle enough. Not even if the politics of the story are about your right to live. Don’t go quieter to appease the callow.

"long ago they had given up the grossness of matter, finding it held them back from their greatest pleasure, which was to see new things—Like me! I shouted, and they cartwheeled in delight around me." This is what I want. :) @premeemohamed.com @thedeadlands.com @psychopomp.com

I went to see a really good band tonight. Great musicians. Right up until they played Dixie for their closing number. "This one's for two of my great-great grandfathers." I walked out.

"Your work matters, because it creates more work. Heroes beget more monsters which beget more heroes." I always feel emotional after reading Danai's myth-inspired stories. (I think her work should be part of every art history class!) @danaiwrites.bsky.social @translunartl.bsky.social

Friends! "Some to Cradle, Some to Eat", my retelling of "Little Thumb" is out now in @lightspeedmagazine.com! It's a fairytale retelling and a teenage ogre Sapphic romance (this is a sentence I wrote). Two girls save each other from some bad parenting. It might contain a smidge of cannibalism. 🦴

"I want us to be the safe place she lands when she comes home. I want to hand you to her and remember the moment the way she doesn’t and the way you can’t." This piece feels like it could be a single step into the future. 💔 @premeemohamed.com @psychopomp.com

What a delightful review of THE CALCULATING STARS in Math Horizons by Indiah Cosgrove and Jean Marie Linhart. You may read the full review here - doi.org/10.1080/1072... - and I'm honored the reviewers are bringing new readers to the Lady Astronaut Universe.

I know it might be silly for some, but I will always remember this milestone in my life, and I'll always be happy about it whenever I look at this piece of paper. PS.: No chairs were hurt in the making of this frame

"Organization seemed entirely of hand-written notes taped onto the shelves: “Sci-fi with super cool laser guns,” or “Fantasy where horses never die,” or “Literature that’s not boring, I promise.” Delightful & uplifting! @carolscheina.bsky.social in @translunartl.bsky.social
