Goldsmiths Press to publish my latest novel Alston Moor - Anne Charnock I am totally thrilled that Goldsmiths Press will be publishing my novel Alston Moor in the Autumn of 2026 as part of the press’s Gold SF feminist series.

Thrilled! Goldsmiths Press/Gold SF will publish ALSTON MOOR in Autumn 2026. Epic eco-fiction with two entwined storylines, 500 years apart!
I’ve adored every minute of research for this novel.

Always have a map in your fantasy book. Have every character contradict the map, in contradictory ways. Include a timeline and have events contradict the timeline. Include a glossary and have societies and religions interpret the glossary in contradictory ways.

I am so delighted you enjoyed it! Thank you for such a a beautiful review.

Disruption, a story in the anthology

My story "DISRUPTION" is featured in WE WILL RISE AGAIN: Speculative Stories and Essays on Protest, Resistance and Hope, edited by @older.bsky.social @drkarenlord.bsky.social @annaleen.bsky.social, out from @sagapressbooks.bsky.social on December 2nd. Thanks to Sareena Kamath at Saga! preorder!

Haha, we were going to add the “The” too! But it became too many words to squeeze onto a book cover, so we happily dropped it 😅

@tashanmehta.bsky.social's incredible, wild, and mend-bending THE MAD SISTERS OF ESI; feels a little like Borges, a little like Calvino, and is 100% rewiring my brain

Yay! I'm so delighted you're enjoying it!
