So I blazed through @clpolk.comβs βEven Though I Knew The Endβ in a day.
Wonderful story.
Read it if you like an old time radio detective story that also includes magic.
We can ask Farrell and Jim :)

Iβve unmasked a white nationalist fight club in my city: Montreal.
After weeks of work (with help!), I can reveal an Olympian as a member of the Frontenac Active Club β one who, unbeknownst to the owners, brought them to a local gym for training and propaganda photos.
Hereβs my investigation:
I sometimes don't realize how few original posts I do here, because the world is a disaster and I have structural edits due on my next novel in 12 days. And toddler. Always toddler. And book edits.

It is women in horror month. I am one of those and here is my gothic/horror lit collection that people said was pretty good.

Elizabeth's essay really delves into the way our culture fails to see women's voices as authoritative, important, or deeply relevant -- and why that makes it so hard for women to be as read within the horror genre.

Look, I'm not a proponent of "You MUST belong to group X to write about/in the voice of a member of group X."
However, I am a HUGE proponent of "But don't be a fucking disrespectful dickbag about it! Understand systems of power! And intersectionality! And do your damn homework! For fuck sake!!!" π€
Today marks 14 years since 17-year-old, unarmed Trayvon Martin was shot and killed while walking home.
14 years later, weβre still demanding a country where our children can walk home in peace β without being treated like a threat.
Not at the price I'm buying things... lol

Going to re-up our call to nominate On Spec for Best Semiprozine at the Hugos
With Canadian identity under attack by USA-based alt-right political forces, it's an important moment to celebrate things that are weirdly Canadian
This is also their last year of eligibility. Throw them a vote, please.
