Happy to be joining @diogolsramos.bsky.social, @cornellwriter.bsky.social, @aijiang.bsky.social, @foxesandroses.bsky.social, and a terrifying roster of authors in this!

A hand holding a book cover: Different Kind of Defiance by Renan Bernardo. The upper part of the cover contains trees with golden leaves and the middle contains clouds. In the botoom, there are a few drones flying. There's a blurb by Ai Jiang on the cover.

The book's backcover with the description and the barcode. The top says "Defiance has many faces".

I'm pleased to announce that my solarpunk/climate fiction collection, Different Kinds of Defiance, has a new cover art by Hugo finalist @dntlz.bsky.social! I can't express how happy I am with the final result. You can find the new edition in the usual places. 🔆

In support of the national strike, we encourage you to skip our shop today and instead visit Shortwave Magazine, where we have nearly 100 *always free-to-read* short stories, articles, and interviews, from authors like Johnny Compton, Ai Jiang, Nat Cassidy, Hailey Piper, and so many others!

The cover is an upside down gothic manor, with two windows on the top floor illuminated. The moon looms large.
