Poetry Submission Guidelines
How to submit poetry.
I'm reading poetry subs at Strange Horizons this month. You can submit up to 6 speculative poems in a single file or separate files. I recommend separate files, because we allow simultaneous submissions and it's easier to withdraw individual poems. Guidelines: strangehorizons.com/submit/poetr...

Bringing the tale of Fiadh and her quest for revenge though Scottish folklore and mythology to your ears
I'm working on an audiobook production of Tristan Gray's 'Call of the Black Wing' and the Kickstarter went live last week! It reached funding in 12 hours and there's a few stretch goals we're hoping to hit, so any help would be fantastic.

It's telling that he will talk shit about someone who he's never worked with, yet knew a lot about what his close pal Weinstein was doing and never uttered a word about it.

Maya MacGregor Awards Eligibility 2025
All the Stars in the Daylight Sky
Novel (YA)
Astra Young Readers
October 2025
“MacGregor represents Gaelic lore well while thoughtfully integrating the nuance of neurodivergence and grief throughout. A welcome, cosy queer romantasy with a uniquely informed twist on the popular fae subgenre.” Booklist, Starred review
“The characters and sparkling queer romance at the heart of the story are enchanting. A magical and romantic fantasy steeped in Gaelic culture.” Kirkus Reviews
![“This atmospheric, otherworldly fantasy by MacGregor (The Evolving Truth of Ever-Stronger Will) deploys Scottish mythology to touch on themes of grief and trauma brought about by past experiences with mass shootings and Covid-19…[An] empathic and accessible tale of belonging.” Publishers Weekly](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ra5fowzg2p6xebdg72iyvxur/bafkreicjol3cac7hyagtragd5rj5cvb3tcnr25twcmxbcqhs6sj2s6ebqe@jpeg)
“This atmospheric, otherworldly fantasy by MacGregor (The Evolving Truth of Ever-Stronger Will) deploys Scottish mythology to touch on themes of grief and trauma brought about by past experiences with mass shootings and Covid-19…[An] empathic and accessible tale of belonging.” Publishers Weekly
It’s awards eligibility season in publishing, and I’d be honoured if you would consider All the Stars in the Daylight Sky in your reading for YA novels (Andre Norton Nebula, Lodestar, Locus).
I’m immensely proud of this book: a love letter to my Gaelic culture and our intergenerational bridges.
