The technology to erase memories is a happy convenience but what are humans giving up by relinquishing the ability to remember the things that displease or wound them?

I wish I'd had the forethought to develop an ask of some sort! I'm in the middle of shipping last year's international trophies/sourcing this year's judges, + shipping books to a different award's 70-something judges. Until I have another idea, you can always give here if you're the donating type!

Hi! So I'm L, I do a lot in SFF and one of those things I do is run the Ignyte Awards. We're a spec lit award centering the perspectives/contributions of BIPOC in genre. We came about because existing legacy institutions sustain(ed) practices disrespectful or exclusionary of marginalized creators.

I sold a short story! D.E.I. (Death, Eternity, and Inclusion)! D.E.I. is what happens when you read Maureen Ryan's BURN IT DOWN and also ask yourself, "Why are mainstream vampires always white?"

Check out D.E.I. and other excellent stories in FIYAH Magazine Issue 29!

Calling all SFF/H small presses! Looking at my spring calendar and realizing there are a lot of titles from the Big 5 and imprints. I'd love to platform some small press spec fic from marginalized authors (esp BIPOC and/or queer/trans). Email me: bookjockeyalex.com/contact/

It is okay to be a *fan* of your own work and not just its begging salesman, just startled to tears that anyone could possibly enjoy your personal brand of nonsense. You don't have to be self-deprecating about the dope shit you do.

A lovely & strange tale about Birdie who is not quite human, not quite possum, but somewhere in between. @kswalkerwrites.bsky.social tells this story with an undertone of loneliness and a longing, including a longing for being truly seen (as frightening as that might be). - Mariahaskins.bsky.social

Adam and Steven, Civil War soldiers, leap into the river to escape the Confederates. They spend decades living in the water, seeing signs of a changed world… perhaps they’ll be accepted?
