Undoubtedly a TV show, since my novel is inspired by British spy shows from the Sixties and Seventies - classy, smart and dialogue-led. A few readers have said they could see it on Netflix, and who am I to argue, though it would be nice to see it on the BBC.

Well being a Brit, and writing a speculative form of espionage, I would obviously celebrate by going down the boozer, sinking eight pints of lager then scoffing a dodgy kebab on the way home. All while expertly evading the sketchy looking bloke tailing me.

I like anything speculative, both to read and write, particularly anything involving time travel. Tim Power is my favourite writer and a master of grounded, speculative fiction.

dentist in white jacket with red "paint" splatter. just his torso visible. text says: THE DENTIST WILL EAT YOU NOW Sami Peil @sampeil
AITA (M26) for lurking outside of my house while my wife cries? SHE'S MEAT. Is it my fault that my brain went on autopilot and took me here? Sure, I've stalked a couple of my patients, but it's the end of the world.
THEY'RE MEAT NOW.

D7. My story revolves around an unstable time vortex which can change at any time, throwing anyone inside into a different, random time period. The short answer is multiple times.

A mood board of eight tiles and a centre square with lockpicking tools and ancient writing:
1. Always have an escape plan.
2. A swindler never lets herself feel like a fraud.
3. Don't look for the easy grab, look for the easy mark.
4. Never get involved with golems.
The pictures depict, clockwise from upper right:
A) A city of canals and towering footbridges. There are minarets and steeples and red-tiled roofs.
B) A market selling elaborate lanterns, all aglow.
C) A porcelain and gold hand, reaching upwards.
D) Two figures leaping across rooftops against the coming dawn.
E) A pocketwatch--or is it? Constellations and continents cover the front, the body of the watch engraved with runes. It's sitting on ancient parchment.
F) A wax stamp with removable chits that function as coins in a card game.
G) The lords of the city overlooking grand canals and issuing edicts. They are dressed in fine red robes and silks.
H) Assorted bones and shells used for divination and more.
Nia Moredi just wants to look out for her little brother. Miss Laval needs to attend a governess-teacher meeting. Baarsin Dorvierre's being watched. Wren the pickpocket needs to recharge her misdirection charm. If only Nia could remember which of them she's supposed to be today. #QuestPit #YA #F #W

10-photo collage featuring a bright light, an engine, a lighthouse, agates, birch wood, a dock, a bicycle, a tall ship, weapons including a blade and kali sticks, and a crystal.
When the fates of a genius artificer and a ghostly warrior collide, they must outmaneuver seductive half-truths trying to keep them apart. Otherwise a brewing rebellion, demonic beasts, and betrayal will lead them to destroy the land and the people theyโve both sworn to protect.

3 images of book covers: sister maiden monster has tentacles, orange, knife; the z word has an image of a brain, two femmes kissing, teal hands reaching up, a piece of pizza, an axe; the last of us has a man and a girl turned toward the camera as they walk toward ruins; along the right, text reads: If three queer 20-somethings manage to not get eaten by the pandemic zombies, theyโll still have to dodge a preacher bent on building his post-apocalyptic flock.

donโt name the dead
Vivvi was getting wasted for her 21st until she woke up in a drunk tank, which was the only protection from the cop zombies trying to eat her brains.
Stetson was painting his nails and avoiding his family's far right extremist bunker party, unaware that the virus they all ignored would mutate, and heโd have to fight his way out.
Dove was home alone in a post-wisdom tooth coma, still dreaming about her hot dentist, while infected people turned and began to eat immune survivors.
The Dentist was doing an after-hours call, where a patient bite transformed him into a flesh craving monster.
They all want each otherโbut not in the same way.
And they really need to stay the hell away from the Preacher.
DON'T NAME THE DEAD in which three bi disasters navigate the zombie apocalypse.
