repost this if an editor has ever saved you from yourself

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

Every year I do a photography project during October. I’ve done haunted objects and favorite horror movies seen through my lens, for example. This year, I didn’t feel like doing one. Tonight I walked past a ghost and thought, “Decorations!” Here’s #1

In all seriousness, publishers are going to have to figure out how to market books in the post-social-media landscape. That should be an implicit part of their job. What authors/artists can do on their own is increasingly limited and siloed.

My friend and I are very mature adults

Woke early this morning to the news of Manchán Magan’s passing. We’d connected last spring but never got to meet. His books and tv series inspired me to begin learning Irish, to reconnect with my grandfather’s land. This soul taught us much & will be deeply missed.

Tá sé imithe ar shlí na Fírinne

So very sorry to learn that Manchán Magan has passed.

He was a rare talent, and a lovely guy, and still had so much more to give.

Two Latinx writers in the Rhysling Award!! 💖 Thank you so so much for including me!! :') And enormous congrats to all the finalists and especially @pedroiniguez.bsky.social for winning in multiple categories!! 😱🎉 Love to you friend, you deserve it! 🫂

Thinking of Sarah Clancy, always so good at capturing small bytes of humanity, ever moreso now as she's literally sticking up for humanity, while most of us nod off. A great person, hugely kind. 🙏

My friend Sarah Clancy is currently in IOF captivity, kidnapped last night when her boat, part of the Global Sumud Flotilla, was illegally intercepted in international waters.

Some boats are still sailing. Do what you can - wherever you are - to amplify & protest. 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Glasgow Celtic Green Brigade tonight in their Europa League game against Braga. They're right, UEFA is complicit in Israel’s genocide of Palestinians, by refusing to expel the apartheid state for its endless war crimes. It's long past time to #BanIsrael #FreePalestine

Wonderful @bloodaxebooks.bsky.social Zoom launch tonight for three brilliant books by @emiliejelinek.bsky.social, @jesstraynor.bsky.social and @poetclare.bsky.social - can’t wait to get hold of the new collections! Cc @mslexia.bsky.social

I understand the desire to run solicitation-based magazines. Submissions are exhausting, a core burnout driver.

But without subs-based mags, there’d be no one new to solicit 👀✨

The work doesn’t go away—it is redirected to other editors in the ecosystem, who are critical to finding new writers.

Happy to announce that my poem "Perish and Live Forever," which first appeared in MEXICANS ON THE MOON, has just won the @sfpoetry.bsky.social 's Dwarf Star Award for poetry. This award is for best micro poem of 10 lines or less. Many thanks to members who voted. It is a big honor. Much love!

I have a new flash story in Lightspeed!

"On an Unusual Kind of Spatially Distributed Haunting"

Somewhere in the borderlands between folk horror and hard SF... Hard fantasy??? #Hauntology something.
