![“This atmospheric, otherworldly fantasy by MacGregor (The Evolving Truth of Ever-Stronger Will) deploys Scottish mythology to touch on themes of grief and trauma brought about by past experiences with mass shootings and Covid-19…[An] empathic and accessible tale of belonging.” Publishers Weekly](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ra5fowzg2p6xebdg72iyvxur/bafkreicjol3cac7hyagtragd5rj5cvb3tcnr25twcmxbcqhs6sj2s6ebqe@jpeg)
It’s awards eligibility season in publishing, and I’d be honoured if you would consider All the Stars in the Daylight Sky in your reading for YA novels (Andre Norton Nebula, Lodestar, Locus).
I’m immensely proud of this book: a love letter to my Gaelic culture and our intergenerational bridges.

This was such a delight to edit and work on. Our latest story for @globalvoices.org "Queer cinema in Azerbaijan tells stories of visibility and survival" globalvoices.org/2025/12/04/q... Kudos to the author for putting this piece together.
Queer cinema in Azerbaijan tells stories of visibility and survival
These films transform personal struggles into collective narratives, illustrating how survival, memory, and the quest for belonging are intertwined with the creation of queer cinematic histories.

Statehood for D.C. is an ethical obligation at this point, required to protect the rights of our residents to govern ourselves against such out-of-state troops being sent to patrol our city.
NEW: Republican-led states, in a new filing at the D.C. Circuit, say D.C. residents are irrelevant, D.C. belongs to everyone else. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The filing is led by the South Carolina and West Virginia attorneys general. Both states sent troops to DC.

Been thinking this morning about how if you're a US freelancer and you haven't increased your rates by about 6% since June 2025, you're taking a pay cut.
Which also means: if you're a publisher and haven't increased what you're paying by 6%, you've given your staff/freelancers a pay cut.

I just don't need to know what the Telegraph has written about Dungeons & Dragons. It's a newspaper for people who are frightened of samosas.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

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....
