Quote: "I read the whole thing twice! From the unsettling tension of the first story to the bittersweet triumph of the final piece, each of these stories is meticulously crafted. Readers will find wonder, fury, and excitement in these pages, but most welcome to me is the underlying theme of hope." —Myna Chang, MicroVerse
Author and SFF industry blogger @mynachang.bsky.social was an early reader and advocate for this anthology and featured a great interview with our editor @chriscampbell.bsky.social on her blog, Microverse.

This panel was so joyful. Love the energy at @awpwriter.org around game design as a literary practice!
I loved speaking on this panel so much! This is a great recap, @amandatien.bsky.social 🎲. Thanks for writing it.

A photo of a person with red curly hair and glasses playing guitar on a stage lit by strings of lights and overseen by enormous skeleton puppets in the rafters. Her head is canted to the left as she sings. There is a skeleton in a black cloak listening above with its head at the same angle.

I wanted to show you all these photos that @chriscampbell.bsky.social took at the amazing Black Cherry Puppet Theater #AWP2026 showcase of musician-authors last weekend.
The national suicide being committed by the Republican-led United States has no historical precedent. Centuries from now (if humanity survives that long), historians will struggle to explain how such a thing was possible.
Even with all the video footage, tweets, and the rest of the contemporaneous documentation, none of it will ever make any sense.
It may actually make less and less sense the more historians delve into the evidence. 21st century US history is going to be the domain of psychologists, not historians.
Our panel Prose, Poetry, and Play: Game Design as a Literary Practice at #AWP26 was amazing yesterday, with brilliant insights from @natmesnard.bsky.social @sharangbiswas.bsky.social @brigittewinter.bsky.social @nirele.bsky.social @davering.bsky.social! If you attended, let us know your takeaways ✨
Come hang out with me here! While "fantasy" is in the name, the 4th Street community is warm and welcoming to all walks of speculative and adjacent writing.
Hi new subscribers! I wanted to shine a light on this gem of mine from 2024. A funny, feel-good paranormal romp about a delightfully clueless artist and the *ahem* unusual comments she gets on a travel forum.
Pass it on to someone who needs a smile today. magazine.trollbreath.com/cryptid-car-...

PM deal announcement against a background of line art tentacles. Announcement reads: "Amanda Helms's THE UPPER TENTACLE, pitched as a horror comedy mash-up of EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY HAS KILLED SOMEONE with H.P. Lovecraft, in which the admin for a corporate retreat and a body splitting alien team up to solve the murder of the company's president at a closed ski resort before their alien overlords inflict dire consequences for humanity's collective insubordination, to Mika Kasuga at Union Square & Co, by Paul Lucas at Regal Hoffmann & Associates (world)."
It is I, joining the ranks of those for whom design is their passion
Very happy this weirdo novella found a home with Union Square and Mika Kasuga! Thanks to @canonizer.bsky.social for connecting us!

A figure in silhouette on a purple Martian terrian. There are star trails in an iridescent sky. One of the stars, possibly Earth, is brighter than all the others. The overall color tone is purple and green.
My novella THE RAINSEEKERS is out today from Tordotcom! A group of adventurers hope to be the first to feel the rain on Mars.
