It all started on this day. Thank you for a wonderful twenty years.

Text in the center reads: 20 Years Oct. 2006 - Oct. 2026, clarkesworldmagazine.com

(right) Cover art for issue 241 by Marcel Deneuve is "Labyrinths of Azarax" and features a blue and white mechanical eye in a circular opening looking at a small, white, glowing humanoid figure standing on a large pipe in the tunnel. Many pipes line the walls, all heading out to the main room. Pipes are yellow and gray. Room beyond is blue.

(left) Cover art for issue 1 by Tomasz Pietrzyk is "The Town of the Towers" and features a surreal town of yellowy white distorted towers with reddish orange roofs that overhang the towers and rise to a point. Mishapen dark windows and doors are scattered about on the buildings. Orange sky gives the entire piece a warm tone.

There’s no substance or heart to a book without the human behind it, whatever the genre. In other words, shut the fuck up, Joyce.

Trying to go see the new Resident Evil movie but apparently before I can enter the auditorium I have to have the spade key to unlock the door? And I only have the hearts key, which unlocks the route to the concession stand. Anyone know where to go next? A bit stuck

There are already articles circulating trying to rewrite history and say America was great after 9/11 and united and thoughtful and just a reminder that that period was marked by intense and insanely racist hatred, paranoia, and a frothing desire for unhinged violence and oppression.

How are there short fiction writers out here completing dozens of stories a year, and I’m out here exhausted after just one? Out of commission for months? (It’s probably perfectionism.)

Definitely agree. It’s why I admire authors of that genre so much!

Jason Arday is dead. The UK media won’t learn a thing from this. Because they’re racist bastards. He has two children.

Water companies planning to raise bills on customers so they can use it to fix infrastructure. That’s a fucking laugh. Here’s another idea of how to do that: stop paying yourself massive bonuses you absolute cocksuckers.

Does anyone have resources about how to create fantasy (or science fiction) worlds without relying too heavily on coding/using real cultures?

Me: Well, I should continue writing that story. My brain: You could do that, or you could outline this other story about a murder mystery in a second-world fantasy setting.

K. A. Tutin / Kirsty Tutin @mskatutin.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Grammatically incorrect, but there’s so much more to writing than grammar. Flow, rhythm, style, voice—all things that should be taken into consideration before jumping to delete it.
