Absolutely delighted to have a short story in the latest issue of ParSec from @pspublishinguk which came out on Friday. I’m in great company too, so it’s well worth a look. pspublishing.co.uk/parsec-79-c.asp

Real talk.
We need 300 new subscribers (including renewals) to keep publishing issues at our current size. If we don't get hit that number we will need to scale back the magazine size.
Help us keep our size (or increase it!) over the next two weeks!

Stayed up late last night to finish this. Excellent stuff; much has been said in reviews about the humour (it works well) but the horror should be lauded too. The concept of the second story is chilling and, although supernatural, frighteningly plausible. Volume two awaits! @cstross.bsky.social
