Describe your plot in five words or lessβif you dare.
Strong woman kicks robot ass.
Background image is a book cover: the top third is bright green with yellow text that reads Tiffani Angus, Val Nolan. The middle third is black with white text that reads Spec Fic for Newbies Vol. 3; the bottom third is green with yellow text that reads A Beginner's Guide to Writing Even More Subgenres of Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror. Foreground text: βWesterns have always had their share of capable women because the setting fosters independence and resourcefulness. Space westerns are no different, and, while the parent genreβs stereotypes of barmaid, schoolteacher, and golden-hearted sex workers (looking at you, *Firefly*) still exist, theyβve long been supplanted by a broader range of archetypes.β P. 47
Howdy, pardner! That's a mighty fine... *spaceship* you got there. SPEC FIC FOR NEWBIES 3, out soon from @lunapress.bsky.social looks at Space Westerns, why we took our wagon trains to the stars, and the various characters that walk into our alien saloons! Pre-order now! linktr.ee/specficforne...
Aw, hell yeah. How do we make this happen?
Good Morning Blue Sky! Hope youβre all ok? Today Iβm currently reading and enjoying The Memory Police by Yoko Ogawa for a book club discussion, what are you reading at the moment?
Greetings, Wombley one! I'm good, how are you?
This week I'm reading Gene Wolfe's *The Claw of the Conciliator*, and after that will probably dig out some of the old Usagi Yojimbo books I haven't read in an age.
Cover of Fight Like A Girl #2. Art by Oisin McGann. Image is of a brown-skinned girl in light armour wielding a Very Big Sword. She is surrounded by images of other things she might use to fight, not all of them obviously weapons.
With stories by Danie Ware, Juliet McKenna, Anna Smith Spark and many others, Fight Like A Girl #2 was a feature on award short lists this year. Find out why people love it so much:

I had a pretty good editor working on this one, so it should be good.

Have the emails gone out about this one yet? I don't remember seeing it in my inbox.
Nah, I don't hate myself enough to do that.
Hollywood isn't the only place movies are made. There are a lot of indie filmmakers out there, just as there's a lot of indie authors and indie musicians. Who needs Hollywood?
I would really like to see 'X* is a genius. It's just a shame he** can't write decent women characters' reframed as 'It's a shame X can't write decent women characters. If he could, he'd be a genius'.
* said of plenty of authors and film makers.
** I considered 'they' but every one I recall is 'he'.
Well, I'm not going to disagree.
Things are happening. That is all.
Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind.
It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty.
Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face.
Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.
Thank you.
