Onto the second draft of my sword & sorcery novelette

Kane Williams, fantasy author @authorkanew.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Just typed the end line on my sword & sorcery novelette (tad long for a short story but far shorter than a novella). Liking how the first draft came together! Let’s hope I still think so on the first full read through tomorrow… 🤞

The awesome folks at SFF Insiders review DUST OF THE DEAD! "...Dust of the Dead just might become a new favourite read, as it has for me." www.sffinsiders.com/blog/review-...

sffinsiders.com

Dust of the Dead by Michael R. Fletcher — SFF Insiders

Dust of the Dead hits all the notes of a high-quality grimdark tale, with enough intrigue, twists, and glimpses of hope to make one read well into the night.

The Soft Touch by Daniel Polansky is an absolute page turner. Such an immersive novella. Spectacular publication, @grimdarkmagazine.bsky.social The dialogue is up there with the very best! A great cast of morally grey (or downright dark) characters, too.

The City & the City by China Miéville had me hooked from start to finish. I can see why it won ALL the awards This murder investigation is set in the most interesting of places. This incredible world building influences and informs the plot, as our inspector searches for answers

Kane Williams, fantasy author @authorkanew.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

The Land Herself by Ainy Cormac is original, inventive, layered and compelling. The world building is a real highlight. Loved exploring the Tower's ever-shifting rooms and other realities with the characters. Also really enjoyed the relationship between Turtles and Shadram

All five stars for Dogged by @michaelrfletcher.bsky.social. Fast, fun, funny and occasionally brutal Dogged had so many traits of man's best friend. Also reminded me of Drax the Destroyer from Guardians of the Galaxy Best of luck for the SPFBO finals, Michael.
