RIDE OR DIE x LOVE ME LIKE A ROCK SONG When her mom is caught in a magical trap, a nonbinary golem goes on the road to save her, with her ace sister. She must negotiate with witches, fight shapeshifters, and face a family curse, or lose her sister, and maybe herself. #DVPit #OWN #LGBT #DIS #TV #A

THE FOX AND THE DEVIL X HELL'S HEART In a vampire normative future, governments restrictions around gender affirming medicines start Delaney on their quest towards being turned into one of the changeless undead. It seems like the better option. #DVPit #LGBT #SFF #A

Mood board reads: The Monster They'd Courted. At the top it says 'Part twisted vampire horror'. At the bottom it says 'Part sapphic sci-fi schenanigans'. The four comp titles appear as Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil, The Fox and the Devil, Volatile Memory and Hell's Heart

“Nicole Field’s ‘The Widow and the Raven‘ runs Mina Harker’s journal straight into Poe’s ‘The Raven,’ a mashup that could have been a gimmick but instead lands its ending well.” From a generous review by Andrew Byers for OF DREAD, DECAY, AND DOOM on @hellnotes.bsky.social ❤️🙏 See full review below!

(I'm not on Instagram) But it has come to my attention that a public statement and apology was recently made after the below review of Adventitious Magazine's first issue. @adventitiouswords.bsky.social, it would be my great pleasure to formally accept your apology on behalf of us all 😆

Screengrab from Adventitious' Instagram about a much needed apology regarding the amazing short story by P. A. Cornell entitled "The Soundtrack of My Afterlife"

Text reads: It has come to my attention that, in a recent review of the first issue of the magazine featured in Interstellar Flight Magazine, Nicole Field refers to Red's situation as "rein-car-nation."

Text reads: I should have made that pun.

I never did. In 7 months since the release of the story, I never even thought of it.

For that, I am so, so sorry.

A blurb that reads: "The Last Infinity is a thrilling, ambitious read that expertly balances the danger of a time-traveling colony on Mars with the timelessness of love and found family. I wish that I could turn back the clock and read it again for the first time." - Bethany Mangle, author of Prepped.
