Congratulations to the Bram Stoker Awards finalists!!!! 🎉💀

Because we're in #HugoAward nominating season, I want to remind you that @aliettedebodard.com is overdue for a Hugo Award win. She's been on the shortlist *11* times, hasn't won, and the fiction she published in 2024 was really excellent. Blog: hugoclub.blogspot.com/2024/09/alie...

Some great recs by Ai Jiang!!! ❤️ Preorders for Disgraced Return of the Kap's Needle are open 💀🚀

It’s deepest February, with cold in the air and snow on the ground, but here is a stack of new books and ARCs to keep you warm. What here is catching your eye?

🌟 The Locus Awards have a long history of recognizing excellence in speculative fiction, from the classics to today's rising stars. Voting is open until April 15—don’t miss your chance to participate! Toto wants you to vote here: poll.voting.locusmag... #LocusAwards

Another great one is: "You're going to know…" which means "I have no idea" 😂

Tell me what’s going on in your WIP right now using only a gif.

Some great, almost paradoxical Brazilian expressions: - Listen so you can see (Hear me out) - I'll wait for the sun to cool down (I'll wait for the heat to pass) - Go straight for your entire life (Go straight) - I know him but I don't know who he is (I've seen him before)

Just bumped into this. I can’t express how absurdly anglocentric and exclusionary this comment is. I understand there are many creative paths for coming up with character names, but perhaps it’s just not American/English?

Happy to see The Whittler still finding some love after a few years! This story about creatures seeking revenge for the vocabulary that was excised of their mouths was originally published in @translunartl.bsky.social and reprinted at @gwyllion.bsky.social!

Finally did 2024 wrap-up with some of my favorite speculative fiction of the year! Incl brilliant novels by @rsagarcia.bsky.social, Sarah Langan, @victormanibo.com @jfoster.bsky.social and @atsayre.bsky.social! benfrancisco.net/2025/02/18/f...

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

If you are a full SFWA member, this petition to amend the bylaws only needs 26 more signatures to go to a full vote. It would take away one of the excuses the SFWA board members are hiding behind to not support Palestinian writers. Deadline is February 20th. forms.gle/ASZMWd8psoyR...

Preorder KAP'S NEEDLE! 💀🚀
