So What If A Strange Kid Makes A Film about Love? (Official Exhibition Catalogue) (Excerpt from 'A Clearing,')

Some new writing I’m working through probably from the fourth novella in the book: thomaskendall.substack.com/p/so-what-if...

@hararereview.com thank you for the repost!

An honour to be read by one of my favourite book blogs

🔥 that would be awesome

Anyway, HOW I KILLED THE UNIVERSAL MAN by @tkendall.bsky.social — if I compare these early pages to NEUROMANCER, it is (1) to emphasize that the prose has Gibson’s rightfully celebrated quality of fluid confidence (every page has at least one paragraph that is just as fucking cool as peak Gibson)…

Thanks so much! Really happy you’re enjoying so far

The Brackish Pool: Towards a Critical Practice of Reading Weird Fiction The ideal reader of the weird has to embrace a kind of wilful suspension of foreknowledge or generic expectation.

And then the first of our essays: the inestimable @megapolisomancy.bsky.social on (what else?) the weird.

What is really striking about this piece is the way in which it advocates for critical reading as productive practice, for "weird reading as a way of thinking critically about the world."

It was really awesome to work on this piece and learn about weird fiction from the best person to learn from about weird fiction!

"We are watching a slasher movie...We are young and drunk and animated by indiscriminate libidos. We are laughing at the kills. We are scrolling on our phones. We are discreetly touching each other beneath our clothes."
