Look what I found in the mailbox! What an awesome cover design.

You'll definitely want to pick one of these up from @writehive.bsky.social. I have not one but two stories in this anthology! :)

A reminder: don’t wait to hear back before sending another submission. I’m trying to respond as quickly as I can, but Kaleidotrope is only open to fiction and poetry from now through April 25.

Vol. 2 available now! We built in a little more buffer than we needed so we're a little ahead of schedule after being a little behind schedule. Link in bio. ko-fi.com/sluggerficti...

They don't look this fancy, but we've got these all over Portland, it's amazing in the summer to walk around and trade books!

The world has massive problems, but I hate it when a new downloaded book opens to page 1. Sir, I want to see the cover and the title page and the copyright year and the dedication. Don’t be telling me what I can and cannot skip when I’m the one reading the book.

Jake Stein (@storiesbystein) Very honored that my story, “The Forgotten Hills,” is going to be the first ever published story by Whim & Wander! Keep your eye out on Wednesday :)

New story dropping this Wednesday!

I'm not sure about you, but I think the collapse of US hegemony, a global price spike and recession, and a new ground war in the Middle East are far worse than drag queens reading books at the library.

We've received more than 2,500 submissions at Nightmare this submissions period (and we don't close until midnight).
I don't know exactly how I'll get through all these subs, but I do know that if every submitter bought just one issue of the magazine, it would pay for a year of content.

I continue to be shocked by magazines and writers that continue to use generative AI. Even if you think it looks good (it doesn’t), or you’ve convinced yourself it’s ethical and non-exploitative (it isn’t), the environmental cost is so ridiculously high it should be a non-starter.

Largest study of its kind shows AI assistants misrepresent news content 45% of the time – regardless of language or territory An intensive international study was coordinated by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and led by the BBC

built on theft and at massive environmental cost and most importantly, numerous studies keep demonstrating that genAI tools often work a little better than by chance. how is it that we can’t expunge these slop machines out of our institutions and communities
