Una de las prácticas que traducen mis alumnos gira en torno a un fragmento de otra novela de este escritor (Eutopia: A Novel of Terrible Optimism, mi primer contacto con su obra), pero Rasputin's Bastards mola como la mezcla de Expediente-X, Guerra Fría, Nuevos Mutantes y calamares gigantes que es.

Apparently today is the day* to remind everyone that @davidnickle.bsky.social and I edited a James Bond anthology: www.goodreads.com/book/show/25...
*For the record, I mean a day in which Bond is being discussed broadly, and not, you know, Remembrance Day.

Finished reading this short horror story collection by Toronto legend @davidnickle.bsky.social last night. I’m a huge fan of Eutopia and Volk so I knew I would dig. Did not disappoint!

Ten years old this year, and alas, only available on the black market most places.
Also, in books, the wonderful anthology License Expired: The Unauthorized Jamed Bond, edited by @madelineashby.bsky.social & @davidnickle.bsky.social. It was produced when the copyright on the Bond novels expired in Canada. Lots of subversive stories, a couple with a speculative fiction bent.

So @procreate.com released a new update with a completely different brush set not long ago. Confusing at first, but it got me thinking outside the norm, and tried my hand at a Turner pastiche. Didn't quite hit it... but I'm not unhappy with it either. #art
