It is autumn, therefore it is time to bake ginger molasses cookies?
Congratulations!!
Five days left on the Lightspeed & Nightmare kickstarter, and they still need $10k to meet their funding goal! Love short fiction? Go pick up a subscription and help spread the word!
Today's workout was 15 minutes cardio, 15 minutes weights, 5 minutes stretching. This makes three trips to the gym this week, so I am declaring #exercise victory!
We've now surpassed 75% of our funding goal! In addition to subscriptions, we've got t-shirts, mugs, signed books, stuff from the magazine archives... We're still about $12,000 away from our $50,000 target with 7 days remaining, so please consider backing if you haven't already.

Thank you!
🧵 Attention, Fellow SFF Artists and Authors -- here is my response to Must Read Magazines, after they presented an Asimov's art contract expecting me to waive all Moral Rights and Copyright to my art. And, I would strongly advise the following to my fellow pros…. 1/
Thanks both for writing this letter and for sharing it. 🙏
I write COOL IDEAS into bittersweet stories that will break you.
I haven't done a lot of cons this year, so this will be my first chance to read from my (World Fantasy Award finalist!) @uncannymagazine.bsky.social story "Unfinished Architectures of the Human-Fae War"
I'll be at World Fantasy in a couple weeks, and I have a reading! Friday, October 23, 2026 11:30AM-1PM Salon 1 & 2 READINGS: Caroline M. Yoachim, Bruce McAllister, Charlie Jane Anders Moderator, Remy Nakamura
We had such a good time seeing everyone at WorldCon in LA, so we want to see all of you at World Fantasy in October!! We'll be on our home turf, so come find us!

At this point I'm happy when something turns out to be less than 25 years ago! 😂
20 minutes of cardio + 10 minutes weights + 5 minutes stretching = a workout. Declaring #exercise victory.
Got through my routine dentist appt, now gearing up to go to the gym even though I absolutely do not want to go to the gym. Posting here for accountability. #exercise
Thanks! :D
