Contract returned, I am very pleased to announce that my story "The Great King's Lost Bride," will appear in a future issue of @bcsmagazine.bsky.social It's a tale of classical adventure following a young man in the Sacred Band of Thebes, a sequel to my prior BCS story, "Nemesis and the Sorcerer."

Be damned if I refer to posts as skeets

A poem of mine is out today in Eye to the Telescope's cyberpunk issue. The poem's an ode to the municipal maintenance work I grew up with. It's called Morning; 37°

Contra Amatores Mundi: A Gothic Fantasy by Graham Thomas Wilcox Contra Amatores Mundi is a love story soaked in martial theology and stylistic decadence.

I'm currently still open for pieces like this :)

Absolute masterclass from Fehervari here on why it can be better to avoid relying on tabletop names in the books. My head tells me this is probably a Vespid Stingwing, but the sense of vagueness and uncertainty adds so much to this scene.

an early 15th century night sits atop a caparisonned "Horse" which itself is stood in some shallow water. The Knight wears a bascinet and has a shield with his heraldry on (mirrored on tha caparison) the horse's head has been replaced with a shrine of some king where a whithered figure holds a book open, forwards away from the horse, the shrine is surrounded by candles.

I'm in my normal horse era.

Beneath Ceaseless Skies - The Good Life and the Gaze of Staivash by Jonathan Olfert She'd just tucked three of the little slips into the hem of her robe, and one into each cheek high behind the teeth, and the last into a crack in the stool as a cache, and the blacksmith was offering ...

A hill I will die on is that Borges' "The Book of Sand" is one of the best examples of cosmic horror in print, to date. Borges does more with five pages than I could do with fifty. If you haven't read it, you should do yourself a favour and do so.

Not gods. Not giants. Just men.
