You're right and you're right to say it.

I would petition folks to wait until the year is actually over. There will still be plenty of time! Folks who publish things in November and December don't have to feel like they have no chance to get noticed! Plus, you have the holiday season to make your cute graphics or whatever.

A table covered in many takeaway food containers full of Lego. An instruction booklet for building the Lego fairground collection haunted house, with its box in the background. There's also an unruly succulent on the table.

Here's a list of real nature photographers posting their own work, who make their images accessible with Alt Text. I love that Bluesky values actual people and not those image stealing accounts. This is just to get you started, there are tons more great photographers here! 🌿 #birds 🧪

Tomorrow's the Canadian release day for The Tapestry of Time. It's a book entirely set in the UK and France in 1944, but I snuck in some Canadian bits. So here's a short thread of Canadian facts about the book!

Love, heroism and the supernatural collide in the midst of war. There's a tradition in the Sharp family that some possess the Second Sight...

I read The Hunger Games in a single afternoon in the cockpit of my boat at anchor while waiting out a storm. The sense of having absolutely nothing I could do and nowhere to go, while being safe where I was (it was a lovely anchorage) was a singular experience.

Today a motorcycle pulled up behind me at the light and when I checked my rearview mirror, the dude had a CORGI in a BACKPACK and the CORGI was wearing GOGGLES and it was GREAT.

Recently I’ve seen great starter packs of SFFH authors and publications. I decided to make a list of fan writers, fan casters, and others who are sources of SFFH recommendations, reviews, and discussions. Who else should be on this? And can anyone think of a better title? go.bsky.app/Nu4B2hA

Here is Julian K. Jarboe if you are in need of a Christian trans perspective, from Rosalind's Siblings (edited by me, not a Christian, but I loved this poem). In case you need this tonight. Thank you @phoebebarton.bsky.social for bringing it up.

The Android That Designed Itself
by Julian K. Jarboe

I. Sermon for My Fabricated Body:
Why does God create grapes and wheat, but not wine and bread? God does this because God wants us to share in the act of creation. To be how you made me, to become how God made me, through you, I can remake myself. You and I: we are already only whole, and shifting towards the divine.
II. Manifesto for My Fabricated Body:
Make me two feet tall with fourteen arms, no legs, and a prehensile tail. Make me large and soft and rolling: a photovoltaic mucus that envelopes all it touches. Make me edible but make me poisonous. Give me one of every face that has ever been called ugly. Give me one of every skin that has ever been called excessive. Give me a way of moving that no space can admit or accommodate, and then (image cuts off here)
