Closeup of a hawk with an orange-brown and white breast, grey-brown wings, and a bright orange eye. The bird is perched in a tree, with blurred branches criss-crossing the hawk in the foreground of the image, and additional branches blurry in the background, along with a bit of blue sky.

Worlds Finest by @markwaid.bsky.social, Dan Mora, and others. This series is my most anticipated read every month. The art is gorgeous, the dialog is witty, and every story takes you on a ride. It's also introduced me to a lot of DC characters I hadn't been familiar with before.

Nightwing: Leaping into the Light by @tomtaylormade.bsky.social and @brunoredondo.bsky.social This got me back into comics after being away for about 10 years. I've loved Dick Grayson/Nightwing since I was a kid and this run was so fun and joyful. A great starting point for beginners to comics.

Stories of Raksura Vol. 1 by @marthawells.com I have such love for the Raksura series and Moon, Stone, and Jade as characters. This volume collects a pair of novellas and short stories in the universe and was a delight. This is a series I'm desperate for everyone to read please check it out!

The Fourth Consort by @edashtonwriting.bsky.social The climax of this book had me punching the air in delight. I love stories about humans and aliens and their many cultural differences (and the miscommunication it causes) If you like Farscape you'll love this book guaranteed.

Asunder by @kerstinhall.bsky.social I absolutely adored Karys and Ferain. Both were amazing characters and I'd love to see more of them and this very interesting world. (Hands respectfully clasped together for a sequel)

This is the movie that introduced me to Bruce Campbell and for that alone I'll always treasure it. And it was via Bruce Campbell that I discovered the Adventures of Briscoe County, Jr. which is really an insane, trippy, campy gem of a tv series

There comes a time when it is easier to continue upward, when the summit, in fact, is the only way out. At such a moment one must still have strength." —James Salter, SOLO FACES (and a metaphor for novel writing?)

Cover of Queen Demon. Kai is dressed in a teal gold-trimmed coat over a long dark purple shirt, wearing a dark veil scattered with gold coins in his long dark hair. He's in motion, running or leaping toward the lower left corner of the cover.
I did a playlist for Queen Demon, which will be out Tuesday October 7 in hardcover, ebook and audiobook (narrated by Eric Mok). Published by Tor Books, edited by Lee Harris, cover art by Cynthia Sheppard, design by Christine Foltzer and Greg Collins.

For BCS, very much this. We're seeing a lot more gen AI and especially part AI/part human 'hybrid' subs this summer, we've gotten better at spotting them, and we're noting who has sent them.
