apart from the known standard model of novels, novellas, and novellettes, we are yet to find evidence of the hypothesized novelino, noveletto, noveluccio, noveluzzo, or noveluolo. a great deal of work remains to be done

Ted Chiang's fav writing quote is from her essay 'Write till you drop' "There is something you find interesting, for a reason hard to explain. It is hard to explain because you have never read it on any page; there you begin. You were made and set here to give voice to this, your own astonishment."

There are fewer Best of anthologies every year! We need books that showcase top SFF stories and help readers find new authors. "Back the Book" and reverse the trend with Locus's new anthology! locusmag.com/anthology #backthebook @locusmag.bsky.social

To the left side of the image, a hardcover book The cover of the book shows an illustration of a caped figure in front of a surreal landscape. The title reads: "The Locus Best Science Fiction & Fantasy Of the Year: Volume 1". Text to the right of the book says: "The Locus Best Science Fiction & Fantasy Of the Year: Volume 1.

The cover for Uncanny Magazine Issue 70, "Ocean Swell" by Julie Dillon: A bearded man with his white shirt open to reveal his chest sits in a wooden rowboat with the remnants of faded green paint. He looks up, perhaps in awe or shock as a giant, cresting wave of dark blue-green water looms over him. In white text is the "Uncanny" banner, "May/June 2026," "Issue Seventy," and the artist, writer, essayist, poets, and Uncanny staff credits.

ICYMI! Reading 2025 fiction? Try the short story "Brooklyn Beijing" by Hannah Yang @hannahyangwrites.bsky.social! You can read it here! buff.ly/vmg76Do

The cover for Uncanny Magazine Issue 66, “Listen To Me And I'll Tell You A Story" by Ejiwa "Edge" Ebenebe: In the depths of the sea a little girl sits on what looks to be a giant pink/green octopus tentacle. Several other tentacles extend in the background, curling in the depths. Towards the front and surrounding the little girl is a school of pink fish, some of them stop to listen as she holds one finger up. She looks like she is about to start telling a story. On the lower right corner, another school of fish is making its way over the tentacles, towards the edge of the cover. The quote reads: "When Beijing appeared on the other side of the East River, you turned off your phone. Your friends had hoped for Paris, or Rome, or Santorini, so in the soft fog of their collective disappointment you knew you would be afraid to voice how you really felt..."
