Another writer fleeing Twitter. 30 years of videogame-adjacent scrawling and also, these days, weird short stories. Pics of cats, books and foxes likely.
Always a cracking day, whatever you see as you pinball between panels and workshops and interviews. Who's going?
Alex DavisICYMI, here's our full schedule of events for Edge-Lit 12 at QUAD - Derby this September - as always, we've got a lively and loaded day of events for readers and writers of horror, fantasy and science-fiction! www.derbyquad.co.uk/whats-on/edg...
The Bulb folks are a fine bunch if you have a story fit for a second turn in the spotlight. Quick responses too! Grateful to them for reprinting my sulky Gorgon story late last year: www.bulbculturecollective.com/read/under-a...
Under Aegis - Leigh Loveday — Bulb Culture CollectiveIn return, I lacerate their hearts with flint.www.bulbculturecollective.comBulb Culture CollectiveHi, everyone! Just a reminder that we are OPEN for your previously published writing! We want to read your fiction, your poetry, your CNF—anything! 💡 We’ll be temporarily closing our general subs in September, but we’re still open now!
When Amnesty International voices concerns and your first response isn't any degree of introspection but immediate lawsuit threats against a human rights organisation, you're accepting your role as the villain, right? You are unequivocally the villain and we should be entitled to regard you as such?
emily sunshinethis is where your money goes when you buy harry potter stuff. rowling isn’t shy about it. amnesty wrote an even-handed report that laid out what anti-rights groups do; rowling uses her billions & clout to suppress it. when you give rowling money; she spends it on stealing people’s human rights.
Got mine. Ready to sit out in the garden this weekend with some bridge-based reading material and without, hopefully, heatstroke-related hospitalisation.

Was lucky enough to do some guest reading for this call, and sweet baby Jesus up a tree, what a selection. Silvery lichen and scarlet waxcaps; taproots and daisy chains; ferns, herbs and heathland marsh. All rolled up into folklore, domestic drama and dystopia. And a wee bit of murder.
