Glad for all the romantasy readers who're living in their golden age but when will fiction drenched in unsentimental cynicism starring women who give no fucks be on trend again (asking for myself and my career)

Looking forward to it, Thomas!

Can't wait to chair this exciting panel in Leeds - interviewing @fondalee.bsky.social @halalltakeaway.bsky.social and AS Tamaki as part of their UK tour lineup!

Honestly, I didn't have any particular actors in mind while I was writing, except for Michelle Yeoh as Ayt Mada in her later years. But since then, there have been a lot of excellent fan casts, like yours! I especially like your pick of Brigette Lin as Shae.

Very excited to be at Cymera this summer! #Cymera2026

Glad you enjoyed! 🦅

A book holds a copy of UNTETHERED SKY, by Fonda Lee against the backdrop of a bookshelf (upon which a fake white owl perches). On the book cover, a woman in a reddish shirt and tan skirt stands upon an ornate chariot. Above her, and enormous bird of prey blots out most of the sky, except for dramatically lit clouds.

Just finished UNTETHERED SKY, by @fondalee.bsky.social: a fantastic novella, as focused and unflinching as the enormous rocs within.

I had a great time with this, racing through in only a couple of sessions. Highly recommended (though it may make you want to try falconry)!

So grateful to Locus! I can track so much of my authorial history thanks to their brilliant journalism on behalf of our industry! So blessed to see our lovely @bklynbooksbooze.bsky.social photo with myself, @randeedawn.com, @shvetathakrar.com, @victormanibo.com & @fondalee.bsky.social on page 72!

That's a cool idea

Enjoy!

Are videos a thing in Blusky?

Author Steven Vickers wrote on Threads, "To confirm, this '100% AI generated' passage is the opening of Chapter 5 from Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. I think authors are going to get screwed in these AI witch hunts."

I agree 100% with Steven Vickers that authors will be falsely accused of using AI in the coming years. In particular, authors like myself whose works were stolen to train AI systems are at risk. When we write in our own unique styles, AI trained on us will quite likely flag us as using AI.

Not sure why I look like a startled deer in this screenshot 😂 also I am not an editor or an agent BUT I am a guest critiquer and lecturer at the Odyssey Workshop so if you want to learn about revision and many other topics, check them out

No editor I've ever worked with rewrites entire sections of prose. And besides, what normal writer doesn't read and agonize over every single minuscule change in their text?

I'll be at the Bow Market Book Fair this Saturday in Somerville, along with @jennlyons.bsky.social and @lyndsayely.bsky.social courtesy of @sidequestbooks.bsky.social. Come say hi!
