I have been waiting to get this book into @jamreads.com hands for ages. I would like to get a copy into everyone's hands, including you, dear reader. I know you need more beautiful, wild epic fantasy in your life.

I, Rhiannon Grist, am not your boss. I am incapable of making you fill out your timesheet, answer your emails, or preorder my cottagegore horror HOME SICK coming out with @solarisbooks.bsky.social in 2026.

So only do it if you want to. Preorder, I mean.

You should probably do your timesheets.

ICYMI!
No One To Hold the Distant Dead, by @klschroeder.bsky.social (pub by @psychopomp.com), is a dark sci-fi novella that gives us a glimpse of hope. A reading that I recommend if you want to continue thinking after finishing the story.

If you like an author's work, the best thing you can do is buy it. The second best thing you can do is ask your local library to buy it. Or, do both!
A reminder that the median book deal for a debut author in the UK is £7000, paid over 12-18 months. (from 2022 Society of Authors report). Some of your favourite writers are struggling. societyofauthors.org/2022/12/06/a....

Faithfulness to a book is not an index of quality in a film adaptation.

A movie is a different beast.

Degrees of fidelity to source material are just that: degrees of fidelity. It doesn't link to how good (or bad) the cinema experience is.

"I've read the book!" is often why we bring up faith.

You know when a cover makes you insta add a book to your review list for 2026?
I think I’m the luckiest debut author in the world to get such a gorgeous cover. @eleonorpiteira.bsky.social brought “The Bloodweaver’s“ main character, Kerick, to life in such stunning, intimate detail that I’m still pinching myself over it.

This is real life, right?
Here's the cover illustration I did of 'The Bloodweaver' by @cnkuster.bsky.social , for Podium Publishing!

Out June 2026!
