such gorgeous art. 🌞

The cover of the Nigerian edition of Caged Ocean Dub by Dare Segun Falowo. A black background covered in a series of mystical artifacts and symbols: a green dragon, a blue cat, a hand with an eye in the palm.

COVER REVEAL

Hi all!
I am excited to share the cover of my debut collection of short stories, "Caged Ocean Dub", which will be published in Nigeria, by Masobe Books. I look forward to the book finding a fresh audience in its home country, and am honored to be a new member of the Masobe family.

"Nonchalant" by Cheryl Ntumy is a glimpse at a world in which human behaviour and psychology are policed and tailored. A meditation on what it means to be oneself.

this is a list of the African speculative fiction that I come across on my cyber treks through the interwebs

The Future Ancients from @prisoner187.bsky.social is a psychedelic sci-fi weave about finding your way back, to a living planet of the ancestral. making peace with the ripples of ancient war, as mirage, as psychic broadcast, as mass memory.

Faith is a Butterfly Resting on a Rotting Eye (or The Art of Faith) As children grow into adulthood, it is often hard to know who is the elder until you are told. With Akpan and Udo, anyone could tell at first sight, on first hearing, who was Akpan, the first son i…

In "the Art of Faith", @gabbyharry.bsky.social takes us into a world of sacrifice and hungry gods, exploring the shifting weight of belief with a deft hand. This one stuns.

thank you. 🥲

💮 indubitably 💮

thank you, Somto.

thank you. 😊

today is my birthday 🎂 i am honored to have lived this long to experience being and beauty on this earth.

welcome to all who are gathered in following.

not the most adept of Internet users but I'll try to share things I like / find and all keep u up to date with what I work on.

enjoy being alive!

it's not too late for us to migrate towards new modes of guidance and leadership, but it currently seems easier to breathe underwater than it is to imagine a new world.

in my mind, this is a time for us to see just how bad things can get in terms of the type of cold power our 'leaders' have over us.

the general tone of global leadership seems more slippery, and 'off' than it has ever been. or maybe it's social media exposures letting us see just how bad we've always had it with men in power.

Hello everyone. Please read, share and comment on my first non fiction publication. Thank you!

They're awesome. I'd love to read your work with them (I'll go searching.) Hope you enjoy my stuff on there when you come across it. 😊

I appreciate this. Felt a bit strange about the win but that has mellowed out now. Really grateful to you for sponsoring the award, and honoring the memory of Walter.

I've got three free stories in the Dark Magazine and one in Omenana. Also, a collection of flash fic and short stories called Caged Ocean Dub is out in the US.

I'm sorry that happened to you. That particular episode touched a very raw nerve for him.

thank you. i understand better now that the award was not exclusively about them.

ooohh, thank you so much for reading ❤
