I doubt I will ever see true nuclear fusion in my lifetime, but I love reading little updates about tokamak designs, plasma containment progress, and how the ITER build is coming along (2033 baby!) Just your everyday armchair fusion fan, I suppose.

My spouse sent me this. Don’t know what they’re talking about.
Haggis has a hole in his roof.
He never fixes it because on rainy days it is too wet to work
And on sunny days it doesn’t need fixing

Viv loves her Uncle JJ, the mad inventor and only member of her family who isn’t afraid of her (she can see it in their thoughts). #BluePitHype Angel loves a dead woman, Nico, the mortal soul it was stuck judging indefinitely when the Devine System broke. It watched her life a thousand times.

#BluePitHype Viv is afraid that her Mother’s going to convince everyone she’s devil spawn and her whole home island turns on her and execute her. Angel is afraid that Lightbringer has done something to the Almighty and the Divine Order has been shattered.

👋 Good timezone #BluePitHype humans, My name is Innsyn, from Wales. Ex scriptwriter turned corporate data wrangler. Read an awful lot, write when kids, puppy and brain-weevils allow. Wrapping up editing on an indie charity anthology, and my main WIP is a weird literary sci-fantasy 🙃

The next book on my reading list is The Other Wind (Earthsea #5) - and I keep putting it off. I never fell in love with Earthsea. Which makes a bit sad, because so many people whose book opinions I normally agree with adore them. What am I missing? #earthsea #sendhelp 💙📚🌈

I’ve officially started my new comic, inspired by my own experiences, Dragon Dorks! Here’s #1, “Creep Not By Radiohead”! #newcomic #dragons #dragondorks #relationshipcomic #queercouple #domestic #humanartist #dragonartist #comicsky #gaylove #funny #lighthearted #insults #affectionateinsults #creep
A comic with a little logo labeled "Dragon Dorks" with sub labels "A fantasy relationship comic" and "by Theodore Snapdragon". The comic depicts an orange dragon scrolling a phone on the couch as a green dragon creeps into frame on a rolly chair. The dialogue is as follows:
Green: Wow. There’s a creep over there
Green: A real weirdo
Green: An utter freak
Orange: I love you, too
Green: you understood! *heart*

How many readers like fantasy crime as a genre? Criminal guilds, sprawling fantasy cities, dark underbellies, and secrets? Shadows of Old Town and the sequel Black Hand of Sangarie might be for you. Find it in my Linktree in bio!

If anyone is not familiar with non-binary British rap-poet Kae Tempest, please checkout their headline set at the Six Music Fest - full video or audio on BBC. It was stunning. And new single, Statue in the Square is a trans battlecry that gives me goosebumps. 🏳️‍⚧️ ✊ 🎶

Next rotation of the reading cycle is the ‘personal selection’ slot. Recently I’ve been using this to work through the Malazan books, but this time I’m returning to Jemisin’s Great Cities series, with The World We Make. I’ve loved every Jemisin I’ve read, so excited for this one 🤩
The book cover for The World We Make by N.K. Jemisin features a black-and-white photograph of a graffiti-covered brick building with fire escapes. The bold, neon-outlined title contrasts sharply with the background, and colorful, stylized tentacle-like designs weave around the edges, adding a surreal, urban-fantasy feel.

From my Bluesky indies reading list - wrapped up Tru Skies’ Cruel Gods trilogy. First half of The End of Time is an absolute banger, loved it, second half lost the pacing a bit but ended strongly. Very satisfying. Best book of the series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 - Cruel Gods is well worth checking out!
The book cover for The Cruel Gods: The End of Time by Trudie Skies features a dark, steampunk aesthetic with a woman in a Victorian-style dress reaching out, while a man in sunglasses and a coat holds a smoking gun. A glowing circular mechanism is behind them, with golden ornate typography for the title.

Returning to the World Fantasy winners: Soldier of Sidon (2007 winner) is the 3rd in Wolfe’s Latro series, the ancient adventures of a god-touched Roman with memory loss. Some great parts undermined by an unsatisfying ‘stop’ rather than an ending. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 - would’ve got 5 with any kind of conclusion.
The book cover for Soldier of Sidon by Gene Wolfe features an illustration of a man in ancient Egyptian-style clothing, holding a scroll and standing aboard a ship with large sails. The background depicts a harbor with more ships and distant buildings. The title and author’s name are displayed in large, bold text, with a note highlighting that the book won the World Fantasy Award for Best Novel.

Book 5 of Erikson’s epic Malazan series, Midnight Tides is a little curious - almost a stand-alone, new characters on a new continent with a different take on gods and magic - can’t wait for this thread to crash into our main body. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 - a very special series, so glad I eventually got to it!
The book cover for Midnight Tides by Steven Erikson features a dark, stormy seascape with waves crashing against a large stone structure resembling a sarcophagus. The sarcophagus is adorned with intricate carvings and has a sculpted figure of a helmeted warrior resting on top. The background sky is filled with swirling purple clouds. The title is displayed in white text at the bottom, with the author’s name in large gold letters above. A tagline at the top describes Erikson as “a master of lost and forgotten epochs, a weaver of ancient epics.”

Running a bit behind on posting my reads. I really enjoyed the first of this series, so continued onto book 2. Still fun - and definitely hornier! Wonderful worldbuilding. Cracking adventure. Another solid ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 from me. And🤞the trilogy gets a good finale!
The book cover for The Cruel Gods: The Children of Chaos by Trudie Skies features two characters—a man in a dark coat and sunglasses facing away, and a woman in a purple Victorian-style dress looking over her shoulder. The background showcases a glowing, celestial clock-like structure with intricate details, set against a dark, purple-hued cityscape. The title is written in ornate, decorative lettering with gold accents.
