When I'm on the train or at the airport, I see rows of arched necks, dozens of scrolling thumbs... It saddens me when it seems fewer people read books since the advent of the smartphone. Change is inevitable, I suppose. But no matter how humanity changes, there will always be a place for books.
1899 cancellation was unfortunate indeed... I worry these cancellations will cause a feedback loop, starting a show with a single season is a 'risk.'

My favorite of your work.
I'm in love with the writing style of Caitlin Duffy. What a discomforting, and perfectly written opening paragraph, and the story gets weirder from there. From the October issue of Cosmic Horror Monthly. #writing#weirdfiction
Dredging to raise the water levels in key areas? A dire solution. Thanks for sharing all this good reporting, Will.
Love supporting Solarpunk these days - art that helps guide our civilization into an educational and hopeful direction. Here is a chance to support and get in on the fun.
Disappointing.
Been thinking a lot about this quote from Malazan, lately. It's interesting how speculative fiction either serves as a source of escapism from reality, or a sobering reminder of it.
Only thing better than Lauren C. Teffeau's prose is her grasp of ecosystems and the role and humans within it. If you are keen on a thoughtful and expertly-written eco-adventure, I highly recommend her new novella.
