Totally agree, Patty. This makes no sense, just a diversion in the form of a vague stab at fighting the authors' corner.

Everyone must read this post shared by @scottedelman.bsky.social. I am done with the continual contract drama associated with Must Read Magazines. At the rate things are going, their lawyers are going to absolutely destroy Asimov's Science Fiction, Analog, and F&SF. SMDH

Diabolical. I wasn't aware that cover artists were dealing with the same nonsense, but it's not surprising. Thanks for sharing, Jason.

Atomic Coffin by the talented @benedictanning.bsky.social is out now in North America! I really enjoyed this one, definitely check it out if you're a fan of claustrophobic psychological horror.

I've been travelling, so I'm a bit late with the announcement, but my space-horror story "Song of Marzanna" is out now in Tales to Terrify. A xenoarcheologist studying an orbital temple left by an extinct alien race discovers something terrible about the inscriptions covering its walls. #horror

Good friend and author Stephen Cox's new book 'The Crooked Medium's Guide to Terror' is out now. I love this cover, and the pitch is killer.

Ah, interesting! I loved the book but I bounced off the TV show, not because I didn't like it but because it was so different.

Love the red in @stephencoxauthor.bsky.social's upcoming book, killer cover

Harbour of Hungry Ghosts is almost out, and the wonderful @elizachanwrites.bsky.social is always worth hearing live. She's touring in July and August to talk all about the new book. #fantasy

Beautiful cover for @bingewriting.bsky.social's latest book, and it sounds like it's going to be a killer story.

not saying anything new, but if these folks actually believed in genAI writing, they'd disclose it, tout it, and build their own audiences elsewhere and leave others be. hiding and sneaking it to markets who want no part of it doesn't prove you're good at writing. just proves you're good at fraud.

Atomic Coffin by @benedictanning.bsky.social couldn't have been released at a better time. Perfect summer treat. Taking this bad boy on holiday next week!

AI is Appropriated Intelligence. It is built on the work of the world's creatives - authors, artists, musicians, actors, voice artists, designers, journalists, directors - without permission. 'Appropriated' is a more useful description of the tech than 'Artificial' IMO.

It's Pub Day for my debut novel, THE REPUBLIC OF MEMORY. It's an Arabfuturist story of a revolution set on a generation ship with lots of linguistic shenanigans. Chapeau to tu!

Contracts signed. I'm a big fan of the @escapeartists.net podcasts, who've been consistently publishing some of the best short fiction in the business. This year I'm pleased to say that I'll have stories appearing in @castofwonders.org and @pseudopod.org!
