Ah well…
Honoured to be awarded the British Fantasy Society’s Special Award for my contribution to the genre. Thanks to JRR Tolkien, who sparked my lifelong fascination; to all my colleagues and authors since the time when sff was a despised genre to the most successful sector of modern publishing. #books 💙📚
Dealers closes at one…
Go and buy stuff from here. This is not a request.
I like this hotel. Even the concession stand is an ally.
On 11 Oct 1833, workmen dismantling Bryn yr Ellyllon - the “Hill of the Goblins” - near Mold uncovered a Bronze Age grave containing a crushed gold cape. Made c.1900-1600 BC, it is one of prehistoric Europe’s most extraordinary gold treasures.
Dear people at #FantasyCon who are looking up our books on Amazon. The paper editions are cheaper here than online. The ebooks are the same price but Amazon doesn’t get a cut so the author gets more money.
Come see my bright red harp at my fcon reading! 11am Hebrides @britfantasysoc.bsky.social
We have two copies left at #FantasyCon. It has been one of our best sellers this weekend.
Good morning #FantasyCon, we are open for business at the @wtpress.bsky.social table. You have until 13:00 to buy books at our traditionally discounted convention prices.
Okay #fantasycon, I am in the bar until 11am. I have 4x copies left of The Sport of Wings, selling for a fiver.
If you want a steamy fantasy romance about the high stakes, adrenaline fueled world of competitive dragon racing, come and find me!

Congratulations to the British Fantasy Society Awards winners, all most richly deserved. And check out those shortlists, showcasing the depth, breadth and range of current speculative fiction in the UK 😁
The starter and dessert were quite nice. I may have had two desserts. But the main was best characterised as bland, except for the little ball of haggis which was lovely. For a hotel banquet meal, this is exceptionally good.
