I loved it, Steph!❤️
Not long now!
Kind words from @catherinemccarthy.bsky.social, author of Mosaic & Immortelle.
Oozing with Victorian Gothic, A Fragile Thing toys with the Faustian bargain and leaves you asking, Who is monster, and who is man? Mesmerism, hypnotism, mind control—this one has it all!

Same! It's crazy. This one states they may take quite some time to make a decision, so I need to wait.
Subbed a short on the 1st of July and watched the rejections tick down on Sub Grinder over the months. The market in question came down to 5 subs, but that was well over a month ago. Then it stalled, and there's been nothing since. Writing is a game of patience.😅
If you've read STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS or any book by any author, please leave a kind review somewhere in a proper review receptacle. Leaving these reviews helps the book, helps the bookish ecosystem, and also we are sustained by them as we sit in the corner and greedily gnaw on them like squirrels.
I'm gathering people's thoughts about mental health and speculative fiction through an online survey. I'd be very grateful if you could take 10 minutes to share your reflections on Inner Worlds and why it mattered to you, or on speculative fiction more broadly ❤️

Ah, thank you so much, Steph!😍
Three book covers at the bottom: The House of Lacelean Street, Mosaic, Immortelle. Above that is the found poem created from their blurbs: A Wicked Reawakening Midnight poisoned sanity. Its sordid magic immersed the luggage of memory in a forever grave, undoing the coat of the past to dance with the spirit of a wicked reawakening.
Today's #WIHM found poem features @catherinemccarthy.bsky.social 😊
Supportive, kind and a real Welsh talent.

I have something positive to say...
Did you know that the average acceptance rate is around 2%?
Even after years of experience and years of submitting, I still get rejected, as do others. You must not take it to heart, seriously.
It's a cozy read for sure.
Same here! My pinned post is missing, plus the one I posted approx 20 mins ago only shows on the phone, not the PC. I assumed it was just me.
I first read Heidi around the age of 8, but certain parts still stick with me. Giving it a re-read for the sake of posterity.

I do think there is some subjectivity to the definition but I'm hoping that we can keep it from becoming so wide-encompassing that it's use as a term becomes meaningless (personally I blame the marketing folk 😅).
Let the arguments begin!

Thanks, Mark!
This collection is quite good, and I recommend it for anyone who enjoys the more subtle/atmospheric style of supernatural fiction.
Marie Vibbert’s MULTITUDE explores the concept that we aren't the only intelligent life in the world, an idea which has long fascinated humanity. But if, in fact, aliens exist: what would they be like?
We would like you to write a hypothetical meeting between humanity and a form of alien life. It can be from the human's perspective, the alien's perspective, whatever you want! Write a fantasy, sci-fi, or horror microfiction piece up to 300 words.
Email the piece to darian@apexbookcompany.com. The top three will be voted on among Apex staff, and the winners will be published on the Apex blog, as well as sent an ARC of MULTITUDE and a keychain! Contest closes on March 9th.
We're hosting another microfiction contest to celebrate the upcoming release of @reasie.bsky.social's cephalopod scifi MULTITUDE! ✍️🦑🪐 The theme is a hypothetical meeting between humanity and a form of alien life. It can be from the human's perspective, the alien's perspective, whatever you want!

You too, Andee!
Talk about coincidence! I subbed a short today without realising there was a theme (it wasn't explicit). Thought I'd blown it, so checked the theme, and guess what? My story actually fits!😄
