My guilty pleasure is Korean zombie movies. Train to Busan, Peninsula and now Colony…. Emotional beats are a little saccharine but boy, do I love seeing zombie hordes spewing out of a turn or forming a human mountain or some other crazy zombie shit.

Pub day! I'm so glad that Nameless Saviors is now available to read at @tractorbeamearth.bsky.social What if you could save a country that would rather kill you than admit its problems? It has government corruption, drunk shenanigans, and final year stress 😌. www.tractorbeam.earth/story/namele...

Great fiction helps you see the world as it truly is. For instance, the day I read Kafka’s Before the law, is the last day I ever submitted a query to a literary agent. 😂

Hi Chikodili, that’s the cover for my debut novel, A Dying Giant in the Palm of Your Hand, published by Masobe Books this year—it’s about a merman who was captured in the Niger Delta and the boy who risks everything to set him free.( I loved Dazzling by the way. Treasure’s voice was excellent!)

Honestly, super hero stuff is its own genre and should not be bundled with science fiction, please.

My writing process depends on what I’m writing. Science fiction starts with research which I thoroughly enjoy. Nigerian/African speculative fiction, though, comes fully formed, like an ancestral dream which I must urgently translate to words before it is taken away. #writingprocess

So I love Dark Matter. Die hard Blake Crouch fan here since Wayward Pines. But I hope we all know that ‘observation’ in the double slit experiment—which has been combined with Everett’s Many Worlds interpretation as the foundational premise of this brilliant book/series—does not imply consciousness!

Octavia Butler’s Dawn is still one of the best first contact novels I’ve ever read. The mystery builds and builds until you’re thrust, with Lilith, into this horrifying awareness. The Oankali. What a delicious story! I probably need to re-read the whole series again. Thank you, Octavia.#bookrecs

Shots fired: "I named you Nitiri. All the other automatons addressed their chil- dren by their batch codes. You were notX Æ A-116 to me." From "Xhova," by @adelehinijasan.bsky.social, in Mothersound, the Sauútiverse Anthology #SFF #Afrofantastic #Africanfuturism

Text from a short story that reads:

No interruption at prophase. Daughter cells viable,

0.001 Neural crest cells migrating like swarm.
lens vesicle formed, fetal heart beat 150 beats/min.

0.01 Naevus, neck, 0.06um..

I named you Nitiri. All the other automatons addressed their chil-
dren by their batch codes. You were notX Æ A-116 to me. You were
Nitiri from the old Mahwé myth. Nitiri, who faced the frosted ice giant
on the melting ice caps of the North Pole and defeated him. Nitii
who was beauty, fertility, grace, and goddess of nature. A mortal who
sttained godhood by sheer will. I called you Nitiri, and when words

New to Bluesky! Yes, late to the party. Best time to announce that my short story ‘Of All Who Dream’ appears in @lightspeedmagazine.com this August! It’s a tale that tries to peer beneath the hood of what makes up consciousness and reality. Get epub: www.lightspeedmagazine.com/issues/light...
