It's been two years since my only English short story found its way into the world. In it you can find wandering storms and giant lizards (that may help you through those storms); just in case you're curious. ;)

I've posted my GOH speech from #WorldFantasy2024, about indie zines not paying editors limiting the range of editorial voices in our field. It's a call for discussion how to change that, like devising pay standards for editors. 1/2 www.beneath-ceaseless-skies.com/2024/10/24/n...

Hexagon doesnβt have kickstarters or crowdfunding campaigns, but once or twice a year, I make an extra effort to try and bring in new subscribers. So, in honour of it being approximately that time, here is a run-down of all of the fantastic things that subscribers receive! π§‘ππΌ

It'll be four weeks tomorrow, since my first English short story was published. Sadly, Cossmass Infinites has since announced their permanent closure.
Remember to support the short story venues you love, or they might disappear.
@metaphorosis.bsky.social is another great audio sff magazine.
