Social media has so much noise that it does my head in, so I'm relying on newsletters to stay in touch with the bookish community. They're great: less frequent, more depth, and I can read them in my own time and space without algorithms shoving whatever at me.

I'm so incredibly tired of these articles. Please, just mention aspec books even exist as an option. Go read an aspec book and tell all your friends about it. Get those books so popular they get adapted if you only believe visual media representation is valuable and worthwhile.

Beautiful Words Festival @beautifulwordscon.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

The Beautiful Words online program is live! Go to www.beautifulwords.net. 11 pay-what-you-can practical talks for writers and creatives about marketing, networking, social media, building long friendships and more.

Short description: You're looking at an image of a sun drenched beach at low tide with a table featuring a typewriter on it in the foreground. The words Beautiful Words, Online Program, 1 - 10 October 2026 are superimposed over the sand and sky above the typewriter and table. Longer description. The table's covered in a red and white check table cloth, hand sewn and if you zoomed in you'd see that I am an anarchist who does not care about snipping loose threads. There's a cup of black tea in a vintage blue and white china cup, the sort your nan might have owned, and some biscuits on the saucer under the cup. They're an anzac biscuit and a fairy biscuit, which is essentially sprinkles on icing on a sweet bikkie. The typewriter on the table is green and quite stylish. This is a typewriter you could take to a fancy dinner and it wouldn't be out of place. There's also a small white tea pot on the table, a shell and a small purple vase with a wayward bit of greenery sticking out of it. In front of the table is a stool with a retro black and white cushion on it. Why is this table at the beach? Ask the batty author who lugged it there a month ago in a beach wagon and they won't quite be able to tell you. But you can definitely picture that author munching on a biscuit or ten while taking this picture. The beach is sprawling, the sky a brilliant clear blue and there are mountains in the background because it is New Zealand and those suckers lurk everywhere. The writing superimposed over the top is in orange and blue. The overall vibe is an author who's sorted a writing con for the past three months and isn't quite sure what sane is anymore. Why else would they lug a typewriter, a tea set, a teapot and biscuits to the beach? Maybe they need another one of those biscuits. They're rather delicious. Especially the anzac ones.

The cover of The Outsiders of Orkland by Kenneth Feller over the text: Check out this Indie Comedy Fantasy book available for review on BookMatch.co.uk.

Text reads: What would you sacrifice for your family?
A plague ravages the Fringe, but a chance encounter with orcs from Bogan Island gives Boele hope for a cure.

With his lad, Willem, a dodgy crew, and a huge pair of stones, he sets off on a mission to once again unite the humans with the horde.

Or he could screw up and start a war. No pressure.

For fans of The Grey Bastards and Dungeon Crawler Carl, The Outsiders of Orkland is a fast-paced, foul-mouthed, dark fantasy with an Australasian twist.
