Thank you to @tammykomoff.bsky.social for such wonderful support and kind words!

Samovar - 27 October 2025 By Strange Horizons

it continually blows my mind that @strangehorizons.bsky.social has been an open-access, diverse, international sff space for fiction, poetry, art, _and criticism_ for 25 years now -- and that they have a branch devoted to literature in translation. like: ! samovar.strangehorizons.com/issue/27-oct...
