IT'S ME. Returning to my beloved Luna Press, who first opened the door to publishing for me. This book is one I am so proud of, guys, it's strange & hopeful & sad, and I'm so glad it gets to live πŸ–€

they're all nice bats, RJ, even the rabid ones. They all deserve cuddles.

Friends! Fronds!
I am heading to Glasgow tomorrow for #Fantasycon, and this is where you'll find me (as well as the bar, the other bar, generally loitering, and wandering around in a dwam).

Come say hi!

A where to find me graphic with the covers of We Are All Ghosts In The Forest and The Salt Oracle, and the following events: Fri 5pm, the vibes of dark academia, Sat 1pm, writing dystopias in a dystopian world, Sun 10 am, solaris book launch, Sun 3pm, Climate and eco fiction. It's all over a background of misty, foresty water, a wooden dock and a lone storm lamp at the end of the dock.

The shudder of loathing I just felt at seeing an account that 'writes solarpunk with praxis at its core' posting genAI slop Boak. Get in the bin you absolute parasite

@rainewilson.bsky.socialOct 3, 2026, 1:47 PM

I'm curious to see whether folks would like to get the occasional short story on my blog/newsletter thing, in between my usual writing chat & publishing saltiness...?

Testing the water with the story that won a British Fantasy Award in 2022 πŸ–€

I'm hoping so! Watch this space I guess!

@rainewilson.bsky.socialOct 2, 2026, 5:26 PM

Oh look and I was so impressed with myself for making a video, that I forgot to say
a) that it's the paperbacks of THE SALT ORACLE whoop!
and b) hi @solarisbooks.bsky.social lookit shiny books!

@rainewilson.bsky.socialOct 2, 2026, 5:23 PM

BEHOLD me posting a video! Take pity on me - I'm gen X & I hate videoing myself, so this is my not-having-to-record-myself unboxing video for all you introverts out there equally allergic to this! It's clunky but it exists, so I am taking that as a win!

@rainewilson.bsky.socialOct 2, 2026, 2:09 PM

πŸ™ŒMOAR poor Jamie getting himself into A FIX!πŸ™Œ Massive congrats to Dave & everyone at Headline πŸ–€

@rainewilson.bsky.socialOct 2, 2026, 12:06 PM

Very yes

@rainewilson.bsky.socialOct 2, 2026, 12:05 PM

that's good co-operation, at least until it isn't!

@rainewilson.bsky.socialOct 2, 2026, 12:05 PM

I KNOW! I'm not sure he appreciates the sacrifice
