So very sorry to hear that James Sallis has died. He has a forthcoming novel.

Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com
World, you can take a *fricking* break from this now. I promise no one will be upset if people just stop getting sick and dying for a few months.

Congrats!
I came across it while looking for a copy of their other collaboration, the Atomic Age documentary NO PLACE TO HIDE, which I've never found anywhere.
John Crowley and Lance Bird's masterful 1984 documentary WORLD OF TOMORROW, about the 1939 World's Fair, is available in full in what looks like a reasonably clean transfer. I'm sure it's pirated but as nearly as I can tell it's not available otherwise.
It's *very* Crowley and very, very good
Arthur D. Hlavaty died in his sleep early this morning.
I believe this FB post from Bernadette is publicly visible and has all the important things: the love, the loss, the profound sense of confusion about how the world can keep going.
Please boost!

Hi everyone from launch day for A Philosophy of Thieves!
Thieves is my 9th novel & it’s launching close to the10-year birthday of my first book, Updraft. To celebrate, I’ve made my monthly craft essay public, with how-to-writer thoughts I’ve picked up over the past decade.

At long last, there is a new issue of @nyrsf.bsky.social! Kermit flail! weightlessbooks.com/new-york-rev...

It's not that life has become easier for me, but it has become differently hard in a way that lets me work on NYRSF more.
Partial screenshot of an Adode Indesign spread showing the layout of a mostly empty first page of a new issue of The New York Review of Science Fiction. One article has been placed; the author (Joe Sanders) and part of the title (Kate Wilhelm and) are visible.
It begins again.
Well, we didn't make it this year. Damn.
But I'm making progress on the next issue--we have a lot of great articles and reviews in the hopper and I've just wrapped up a giant freelance project. So: Work for a better new future, everyone, because it isn't going to happen by itself.
And now it's George Zebrowski. I only met him a couple of times, but I liked him. This has been a terrible year.
I didn't realize this had launched: the 40th Anniversary edition of TALES OF THE ARABIAN NIGHTS on GameFound!
I'm particularly excited by this revised, expanded version because it has 10 solo adventures I wrote and 5 solo adventures by the great Jennell Jaquays. Over 125K words of all-new material!
Hello new followers!
2024 continues to be absolute garbage. Still hoping for an issue before the end of the year.
I started work on the next issue in 2023. The year since has included a family death, Arthur spending 5 months in the hospital, *me* going to the hospital, emergency home repair, and other tribulations.
We very much hope to get an issue done before December just to prove this year couldn't kill us.
Hey, science fiction writers. A request to make.
Normally it's unethical to discuss a story we didn't buy. But years later, there's a "one that got away" I still think about, and I REALLY want to know who wrote it.
Did YOU write about space snails taking over the anglican church?
