How cool to learn that my weird little family folk horror drama, The Family Axe, is lined up to appear in Boreal: An Anthology of Taiga Horror published by @strangewildspress.bsky.social. The story is set in the Caledonian forest up which has been part of the Argyll landscape since the ice age...

Best of British SF 2022 - it won a BSFA, and I'm in it with the tale of a ennui-filled warship AI relegated to spend its days running a corner shop. Today and tomorrow, the Kindle price dropped to just £0.99 ($0.99 in the US).
Please share, read, and review!

Afternoon all. A belated birthday present for me is the publication of a new story by some lovely Canadian types @onspecmag.bsky.social.
Deeply chuffed to point to a wee tale of gnomes and nature.

I took part in this workshop and still keep the notes and presentation handy - it's a valuable toolbox and E.M. Faulds is constructive and sympathetic when discussing ways to use the tools to skilfully hammer and file drafts into shape! 🧰

I just re-read the book, a beautiful edition with illustrations by Sebastian Meschenmoser ✨ Apparently Michael Ende did not like the movie at all, sadly he is not around to tell us what he would think of a new one - I don't know how I'd react to a shiny new Fuchur, but keeping an open mind!

For anyone who feels a bit hesitant about coming to Worldcon this year some perspectives from someone who lives here and loves it.

Worldcon 2024 attendees, I've written the kind of post I love to see before I go to a con - where near the convention centre would a local buy groceries, go for a walk or get food? heathervalentinewriting.com/2024/01/28/w...

For anyone in the mood for a bit of urban folk horror based around the legendary British public information films of the 70s, I have a new novella coming out called Charlie Says. It'll be published by the wonderful Black Shuck Books on Feb 29th, but it's available for pre-order now.
