A conversation with the incredible @plstuart-author.bsky.social is live on Friday. We'll be chatting all things writing and A Drowned Kingdom. Subscribe to The Four Beardsmen of the Bookpocalypse podcast on YouTube so you don't miss it! www.youtube.com/live/a7MtU4F...

Normally when I DM a live session I have a vague story I'll follow. This one I just wrote "combine harvester". The rest is on the players. Seriously fun episode! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sarl...

@annasmithspark.bsky.social meets Band of the Hawk in this grimdark gut-punch of a novella; it absolutely SLAPS. For fans of @anthonyryan.bsky.social and @joeabercrombie.com, An Inkling of Flame cements @zbsteele.bsky.social as an author to watch out for.

I reviewed Monstress, Volume 9: The Possessed over at the FanFiAddict blog! Check it out! This is a GREAT series and it was surprisingly difficult to put my thoughts together for a review.🔥🐺🌊⛓️🧬🧜 #bookreview #monstress #graphicnovels #books #comics #booksky

Did I find a new favorite author when I read Alien Clay by @aptshadow.bsky.social ? Considering how great the book is -- maybe?! Check out my review: fanfiaddict.com/review-alien... #booksky #firstcontact #scifi @orbitbooks.bsky.social
