Today's the day! You can read my short story in issue 3 of @underbellypress.bsky.social here: underbellypress.wixsite.com/home/issue-t...
Isn't it beautiful? ๐? And no, I'm not just saying that because I have a short story in it... Out tomorrow!
Hopefully. I'll let you know when it's out!
Thank you!
Very excited to have a short story featured in issue 3 of @underbellypress.bsky.social - out next week!
Sigh. The lift on platform B at St Pancras is out of order again. Having to re route to Farringdon and catch the tube. The train I'm on a driver-only train so relying on assistance from station and tube staff working out. Feel a bit sick #DisabledByTheRailway
I only just came across you guys today. Even if I didn't love boardgames I'd probably buy your magazine just for the design based on the pictures I've seen on here!
It is! There is an expansion that introduces a Mrs Panda and baby pandas too which is super cute! I've not tried Takenokolor yet, but I want to.
Good luck! I'm pretty good at getting a first draft down. It's the editing that takes my forever. I don't do any rereading until draft 1 is done or I'd never get anywhere!
If my March wasn't so full I'd have loved to do this.
Tekenoko was one of the first games I bought myself IRL so it'll always have a special place in my heart. I've been enjoying Forest Shuffle, Splendor Duel and Fluxx lately!

Hi @crankedanvil.bsky.social - please can I check whether you accept simultaneous submissions for your flash fiction comp?
Hey! I think I've managed to send you a friend request on BGA now ๐.
Yes please. I need to play through the tutorial first but if you send me your handle I'll set up a turn based game so we're not locked in to playing at the same time.
Sorry for the late reply; I just saw thidI've been really enjoying Diced Veggies,Tekenoko, & Forever Home. I've not played Forest Shuffle yet, but it's on my list. Tranquility is nice too, especially if you just want to play solo. I want to try Harvest & Fromage soon too.
Finally caved and took out a Board Game Arena premium membership today. What should I play? I like worker placement, tile placement and objective-focused games. #Boradgames
Child in the lift: Mummy, I can't wait to get into all those books I bought yesterday
Obviously I had to tell her I was just coming back from the library
This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.
Ooh! I've not thought of deciding not to show someone something as self-rejection before. That's a super interesting way to look at it. I should stop rejecting myself so much.
Ooh! My writing brain is naturally nocturnal. See you there!
Making a spreadsheet of spec fic presses who publish novellas. Please let me know your favourites!
So far, I've got @shortwavebooks.bsky.social, @reactorsff.bsky.social, @neonhemlock.bsky.social, @press-android.bsky.social, & Jo Fletcher Books. Please tell me more!
Oh I have Cat Lady but I didn't know there was an expansion! I'll check it out. Thank you!
Thanks! I'll look into these.
#Boardgames folks! I got 3 new games for Xmas/birthday. All dog-themed and all playable solo. But I'm actually a cat person. Any recs for a cat-themed collection (w/ solo variants)? Have Calico. Not a fan of Isle of Cats unfortunately.
So I set up this account a while ago, followed a few people and then life got in the way. I've just come back and most of my feed is cat photos. I think I like here.
I hadn't heard of you before I moved over here but I love the idea of a lit mag with a beverage theme. Hopefully I'll be inspired to write something to submit.
Iโve made a starter pack of folk who work in NHS communications and engagement (aka #NHScomms).
Please let me know if youโd like to be added (or taken off)!
