A framed picture of Queen Ozma – a brown-skinned woman with wavy hair, poppies over her ears and a jagged emerald crown perched atop her head.

Queen Ozma – a tall, brown-skinned woman with wavy hair, poppies by her ears and a jagged emerald crown - glares at the Man in Grey (an old ghoul in grey robes)

A young Queen Ozma wearing a poppy-like dress and a jewel-encrusted belt.

Queen Ozma in a dress decorated with the colours or the trans flag (because this series is incredibly subtle) floats ominously in a pink, aetheric bubble.

If you want a version of Oz continuity where Ozma is textually unambiguously trans then... Read Yellow Brick Ramble instead, that series handles the topic way better than I ever could.

But if you want *another* one, then the #925Universe has you covered!

A pinkish-purple sky scattered with stars and large planets of different colours, some with rings or craters. A couple suns can be seen, and a lighthouse rises from a multicoloured beach, behind which is a very blue ocean.

This whimsical illustration was drawn by the even more whimsical Theta Mandel. The Face of the Unknown - Overture is the prelude to an upcoming Jenny Everywhere story by Aristide Twain. This story shows what happened to Jenny after the events of A World of Pure Unimagination.

A far-away child standing on a tilted desolate landscape. It is cloudy and grey. In white, at the top of the image, it says “Disparate Minds”, and at the bottom, “Junior”.

Plum Pudding @plumpuddin.bsky.social made the cover and it is the dumping ground (the dumping ground). You will Understand. Soon.

A digital drawing of a brown bay window, as seen from the outisde, with a red neon sign reading “Hotel Warren” in the middle. Behind one of the top window panes is the faint silhouette of a person, with one red eye visible. In the windows below in grey reads “Elodie Christian”, spread between the window panes.

The spooky cover of Hotel Warren, drawn by the talented Newton Locheye!

Hotel Warren is the first novella-length story in The Interstellar Sleuth series, written by series creator Elodie Christian, and edited by Ostara Gale @wyrdvora.bsky.social and Aristide Twain @aristidetwain.bsky.social .

A grimy movie poster on a wavy red wall, featuring Jenny Over-There (a grouchy woman with scruffy hair, a red jumper, grey jeans, and a face with all presumed facial features), the Spider Queen (a taller woman with wavy black hair, a billowy blue shirt, red skirt, yellow cape and a domino mask) and the intrudor (a tall figure wearing something akin to a medieval executionrer's hood) standing in front of a beige background. Jenny and the Spider Queen stand back-to-back, glaring at eachother, meanwhile the intrudor lingers behind them, holding a pink bag of crisps over their heads. The text reads "Welcome to Terror" with the word "Terror" in a dripping, red font. Above everything is a tagline that reads "Out of snacks? Now you know why..."

Today in the #925Universe, the unwanted presence of a crisp-stealing intruder forces Jenny to team up with an unlikely ally – the Spider Queen!

A drawing of a shadowed library. In the foreground, a book, spectacles, and a lit candle sit upon a wooden table. In the background, we can see a bookcase and an ornate window. Outside the window, it is night, and an orange-tinted full moon floats high above a twisted tree.

Happy Halloween! For the 31st day of our Autumnal Calendar, venture back into the depths of the library to discover who your host really is, how you ended up here, and what terrifying fate befell the 16 daily entries prior to this one! thecrewofthecoppercoloredcupids.wordpress.com/an-autumnal-...

FROM NOW UNTIL NOVEMBER 12, the public can purchase Mortasheen for the first time ever. Purchase options at the link. I have worked on this setting for over 20 years, the game system has been in develoment for over 15 and it took me over 5 to just make this first book.

A cropped version of the illustration for Kate Orman's new Faction Paradox prose vignette Great Pearl Girl. It is a black-and-white image depicting a four-headed ram-god similar to Banebdjedet, standing against a stark black sky lit by a single sun or moon. Each ram-head has only a single eye, and those of the two central heads merge together into one, making three eyes in all.

Tonight, the #FactionParadox website is proud to present an exclusive interview with @kateorman.bsky.social, editor of "Liberating Earth" for @obversebooks.co.uk — and a new vignette tying in with that book's framing story!

His signature hat is perched on top, and a pumpkin basket is levitating beside him. His dialogue reads "Candy please. Inside the pumpkin receptacle" in "glitched" text.
