It's occurred to me that the #GSFWC Gallus anthology came out over a year ago, so:
1) I should probably freshen up my bio a bit, and
2) I should probably submit somewhere else one of these days
Here's a quick note from the editors of our next anthology:
"Calling alumni of the #GSFWC!
"If you've yet to hear from us, we're putting together our 40th anniversary anthology and we want to hear from you!
"For more details, get in touch at gsfwc40editors@gmail.com.
"- The Editors"

Gallus. A Glasgow SF Writer's Circle Anthology. Front cover. A woman with red hair, pink skin. Dressed in reds and greens, blues and stars. Gold bells as earrings. A fish in her shoulder, another by her hand, which is wearing a gold ring. A sea bird flying in from the side. There are bubbles in the air. Edited by E. M. Faulds, Brian M. Milton & Neil Williamson.
Missed out on the Gallus launch at Worldcon? Come along to Waterstones in Argyle St on Thursday night. By my reckoning we'll have at least 18 of the 25 authors from the @gsfwc.bsky.social anthology there to sign books and be Gallus.

Worldcon maybe done. But life doesn't stop for @gsfwc.bsky.social ! We have two more book launches before the end of the month! #Glasgow #GSFWC
Egyptian Aztecs, sailing from Norway. Singers of Hecate riding motorbikes from the Highlands. Blackbirds darken the sky. Glasgow, we're coming, today. Get gallus. Occupy.

There is a presence vast and ancient. She turns to find a woman in a yellow coat, she nods, "Hello little old lady." The woman comes to Hope, wraps her in her arms, comforts her and says, "It is time to get a bit gallus."

Worldcon is a funny thing. But it is weird cool and emotional to see people coming to your city, to see them exploring and enjoying and posting cool pictures of home.

A room with a tiled floor, with a big hole, possibly an empty swimming pool? Sat around the pool, feet over the edge are 9 figures - monsters and witches, some with skeletal parts, or tails, or wings, or missing heads, all odd in their own way. In the air above them there are the coils of a giant serpent, the left half is scales, the right is skeletal.
Where does inspiration come from? I love the art of Korean artist/tattooist Mio Im. Her witches and monsters, the weird situations she situates her odd assortment of characters in. I have a print of this image, probably my favourite of her works?

Time is running out, sand through mirrors, the bubble will burst and in Glasgow they'll emerge. A puff of smoke, mirror masks and impeccable swagger.

In a bubble universe outside our own, time is counting down. Twenty three ex-models have been training. They were Tipped and have been writing books of magic on their skin ever since.

Her eyes meet those of the woman standing in the doorway and suddenly she has a new muse, she can see a path forward, like a yellow brick road emerging from darkness. Now, she is a believer.

The bell above the door chimes and Bronwyn frowns, because there isn't a bell above the door. Only the magical can find the tea room, located today next to the Invisible Lighthouse as part of Glasgow's Unseen Art School Campus.

Bronwyn can see things that are possible. And for a long time now all things that look possible look bad. She tries to hide her misery, but she knows Jasmine has noticed when they've shared a shift in the Floating Tea Rooms.

While others decided to go to Glasgow and take a look, maybe those witches could be nudged into doing something useful after all?
#BeforeMidnight #GSFWC #gallus
Hundreds of cats woke suddenly or stopped mid pounce. There was something in the spectrum that only cats could perceive. Well about bloody time many thought. Some shrugged and went back to sleep.

Travelers! What were some stupid things you packed either in a carry on or in a checked suitcase that you ended up regresty-ing at the airport? Esp stuff you thought wouldn't be a problem but was. #worldcon #glasgow2024 #travel #holiday #traveling #summer #glasgow #losangeles #Gallus #GSFWC
The witches of Occupy Midnight are inspired by human witches, they are people, with people problems, who are also cool and magical. #OccupyMidnight #gallus #GSFWC

Rectangular photo of a flat gray mouse pad surface. At the top of the photo are vague images of the bottom corners of a couple of spiral notepads. In the middle of the photo a small caucasian woman's left hand holds a hand-sized cardboard box above the mouse pad. It is the back of the box and has the following text in white font colors: WHO'S GOT THE BEST TRUE STORY? An illustration shows two women in 1950's hair styles and outfits chatting happily. Four cards in blue are drawn around their heads. From left to right the cards say: 1 - Worst roommate story 2 - Best story involving nudity 3 - Strangest thing I've ever seen on a plane 4 - First kiss.

"But she didn't look at Muse, instead she watched a dozen blonde women getting off a bus with Norwegian plates.
"Oh," Muse said. Glancing down to acknowledge the "Muse Witch" t-shirt she'd got printed up specially for coming to the Conference for Witchcraft."

""Witches, eh?" Muse turned to find a woman in a yellow jacket standing beside her. "Hey, Muse, glad to see you could make it," she said.
"Um, hi?" Muse replied. "How do you know who I am?"
"Nice t-shirt," yellow jacket said."
