Soldiering on despite, I’ve a 25 retrospective/26 release schedule up on the site adriantchaikovsky.com

An image of the book cover: a ringed planet in greens and blues with organic-looking growths seeing to sprout from the rings, and a spaceship in the foreground.

The eagerly awaited follow-up to @aptshadow.bsky.social's bestselling Children of Time series, Children of Strife follows our MC as she tries to determine what has happened to her crewmates who left the ship to explore an interstellar ark.

For those who haven't come across the Terrible Worlds series - these are standalone novellas, entirely separate to one another in setting and plot, but loosely grouped in conceptual trios...

Every time. I'm going with that. 🤭

We are excited to unveil our special edition of Children of Strife by Adrian Tchaikovsky in association with @torbooksuk.bsky.social 🌠

No shipping to Canada?? 😭

This story is getting wilder - not only is it a known solitary spider species living communally, but it's cohabiting with a second species, a type of commensalism(?) not before observed. Would be very interested to see if the species are cooperating with weaving/hunting, and how that works.

Cover reveal for my Science Fiction Gothic Horror (!) novella out next year.

An image with text. Each sentence is highlighted in a colour that reflects the amount of words in the sentence. It reads: This sentence has five words. Here are five more words. Five-word sentences are fine. But several together become monotonous. Listen to what is happening. The writing is getting boring. The sound of it drones. It's like a stuck record. The ear demands some variety. ​Now listen. I vary the sentence length, and I create music. Music. The writing sings. It has a pleasant rhythm, a lilt, a harmony. I use short sentences. And I use sentences of medium length. And sometimes when I am certain the reader is rested, I will engage him with a sentence of considerable length, a sentence that burns with energy and builds with all the impetus of a crescendo, the roll of the drums, the crash of the cymbals-sounds that say listen to this, it is important. ​So write with a combination of short, medium, and long sentences. Create a sound that pleases the reader's ear. Don't just write words. Write music. ​-Gary Provost 100 Ways to Improve Your Writing

BONUS Panel below! 👇

A cartoon illustration of a woman looking hopeful as she says, "I thought you said you booked us a 3 day weekend getaway..." Her partner, a smiling man in a Sriracha t-shirt and ballcap clarifies, "No. I said it's a 3 book weekend. So get away!"

😂 My partner created this image with AI based on a picture of me. I have that Sriracha t-shirt and ballcap.
