So proud to be featured in @strangehorizons.bsky.social Criticism Special. Big thank you to @danhartland.bsky.social for including my musings on fast produced pop fiction - a review/publishing trends analysis, with some perhaps non-obvious appreciation for Ben Alderson's achievements in that space.
Also out today, @hanacarolina.bsky.social's review of Ben Alderson's The Haunting of William Thorn. Hana read pretty much everything Alderson has written to put together this piece - absolutely on-message for the critcism special.
What emerges is an incisive reading of contemporary popular fiction.

The Haunting of William Thorn by Ben Alderson
How does a book riddled with grammatical mistakes, repetitions, and inconsistencies end up traditionally published and rated 4.0 on Goodreads?

An obscure folk band is thrust into fame in a horror novel about the perils of social media. How do you preserve creative joy in a world that commodifies art and feeds obsession?

To expand a bit:
There's a whole culture of noise around writing - cover reveals, giveaways, courting bookstagrammers, launches, awards lists, promo art - and none of it moves the needle more than a fraction.
You know who gets attention?
People who are already successful.
Just write.

I think the best thing a writer can do for their career is to keep reading and keep writing.
And do it for themselves, for the joy they get from their own stories.
All the rest is just spilled glitter posing as starlight.
