My latest review for Shoreline of Infinity looks at Fold Catastrophes, a devastating short story collection by Peter Watts. In many ways it's a coldly optimistic book, but I loved it! @shoreinf.bsky.social www.shorelineofinfinity.com/fold-catastr...

#CoverReveal alert! Behold the cover art for our new anthology Haverin, designed by our own Jenni Coutts. Look carefully and you'll spot some sneaky clues to the tales inside. Celebrating 40 years of the GSFWC, #Haverin is out October 2026 from Taverna Press. #GSFWC40 @jennicoutts.bsky.social(1/2)

The cover of Haverin, the GSFWC anthology, which features a red-haired girl reading while surrounded by books and a cat in a green space. Text reads: Featuring: Neil Williamson, E.M. Faulds, Christopher Caldwell, Eliza Chan and many more. Haverin, Edited by Brian M. Milton, Peter Morrison and Heather Valentine.

The back of the cover of Haverin, continuing the green landscape dotted with various creatures, including a robot head, lion, and a pie. Text reads: Haverin, Scots, Verb: Talking in a foolish or trivial manner, speaking nonsense. Glaswegians enjoy a bit of haverin and few enjoy it more than the Glasgow SF Writers' Circle have for the last forty years, following many hard critique sessions with a bit of a haver in the pub. This anthology is a celebration of those forty years, with more than forty stories of Fantasy, Science and the Odd from members past and present. Join us on this fantastical journey, turning havers into stories and revelling in the full range of writing that has come out of the Circle since 1986.

The game itself made so little impact I had to go look at Wikipedia to check I was thinking of the right game and not some other 360-era crap with magic goop juice in it

Chris D Brown @chrisdeebrown.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

When Haze came out we got bags and bags of glowsticks that looked like the magic goop juice from it in as pre-order bonuses, and then sold about 2 copies to 2 unfortunate people. Had the fucking things sitting about forever until we just started cracking them and launching them round the stock room.

Your bad art is better than AI slop.

four frame comic. first frame shows a typical AI poster that says : All chatgpt flyers look the same, especially with this font! the text above it reads : I won't go to your event if the poster was made by AI. second frame shows a still frame from a Hank Green youtube video. text above reads : I won't read your post or email and I won't watch your video if they were made with AI. third frame shows an AI restaurant poster of burgers and chicken in a window. text reads : I won't patronize your shop or restaurant if it is advertised with AI. last frame shows an MS paint window with badly written : Your bad art is better than AI slop. text reads : if you can't take the time or make the effort to interact with me yourself, then why should I do it?
