Khumalo Tales Kickstarter, day 2. Stretch at $5K. I might be an unknown quantity to you. Let's get some voices on that with blurbs. #booksky #blacksky #fantasy www.kickstarter.com/projects/obs...

Blurb for the crowdfunding fantasy thriller KHUMALO TALES saying "One of the tests and pleasures I have is to open books randomly and light on a paragraph. With some writers, that is always intensely rewarding. Zig Zag Claybourne comes first to mind of contemporaries." The quote is from Anna Tambour, author of *How much is that mermaid?*

Started as a little study and became another one of the 'Secret Society of Unpractical Headpieces in Space' series (that still does not exist) 🪐

Illustration by Eleonor Piteira showing a black woman with an elaborate golden headpiece. Her hair is curly and long, she's wearing a dress, and gold and blue make up on her eyes. She is framed by a circle and behind her there is a space view with a star and small planets.

Go on. Do it, open the fairy door. You'll be fine. That mad fairy queen can't treat you worse than your boss already does, and at least being her mortal plaything would be interesting.

A miniature wooden door, complete with little metal knob, hangs in the middle of the post of a wooden fence. The tiny door is painted green. Next to it to the left, even greener ivy grows up the fencepost.

The Executioner is back, and frankly she's had enough of, well, just about everything. On pre-order: wizardstowerpress.co...

The cover of The Executioner's Blade by Andrew Knighton. Art by Ben Baldwin.

The image shows an older, white-haired woman with a big sword over one shoulder. A dragon's tail is wound around her body. There is a cityscape in the background, and more fantastic beasts in the sky.

the main reason i find fantasy lacking as a genre is that there is exactly one fantasy plot worth telling and we already got to it with Tolkien and it is "satan ran across the icy tundra, pursued by the giant spider who wanted to eat all his diamonds"

Today I recommended Julian May’s Pliocene Exile for a time travel rec request in the r/romantasy subreddit (I’m not THE DEVIL, I did caution it’s not a romance with an HEA or a main couple, I’m just saying several commenters would probably pick up Aiken or Marc’s vibes and go ham)

Just do what you can, while you can, where you are, with what you have. All possible worlds are made of that. If you want a better timeline, congratulations! You can get there one step at a time, from here. And, with deep condolences, that’s all we get, and we have to do it together where possible.

Image 1: A comic book panel. Emma Frost stands behind and speaks to Miss Piggy.

Emma Frost: Darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your midn to ascertain if you're telling the truth?

Miss Piggy: But of *course*, darling. I am an open book, a tell-all memoir.

Image 2: A continuation of the same comic. Emma Frost's eyes glow white and her mouth is agape.

Emma Frost: My god...

Behind her, a kaleidoscope of images of Miss Piggy in various scenes and forms, including dramatic action kick wearing spandex, wearing expensive-looking clothing, and wearing a tiara and being carried by shirtless men in a palanquin. There is a multi-colored star motif and several sparkle effects on the image.

Image 3: two horizontal comic panels.

Top panel: Wolverine touches Emma Frost's shoulder from behind.

Wolverine: Frost? She legit?
Emma Frost: She's... She's...

Bottom panel: a closeup of half of Emma Frost's face, eyes and mouth still wide with wonder.

Emma Frost: "...She's *everything*. And I would *die* for her.

it is a travesty that the brilliant Indrapramit Das is not more widely known in fantasy and horror fandom. The way Indra pulled South Asian history, politics, monstrosity, and queer love together in one book is a thing to behold

HUGE: Elizabeth Warren, AOC, and other members of Congress have introduced a bill to push private equity out of healthcare. The Stop Corporate Takeovers of Physicians Act would make it illegal for private equity, insurance companies, and for-profit corporations to own or control medical practices.
