“If life is a cloud, and a story is a face in the cloud, then a storyteller is one who feels compelled to stare at the cloud until they find a face.”

White text on a brownish background: The Seldom, №14. Unremembered stories betwixt lunar parentheses. Stories tend to be more organised than reality. Perhaps this is one driver for telling them. A tentative thesis: If life is a cloud, and a story is a face in the cloud, then a storyteller is one who feels compelled to stare at the cloud until they find a face. They cannot leave that cloud alone…

100,000 words of coxy hopepunk. 3 books in a boxed set with covers by Augusta Scarlett; volume 1 features a beautiful Black woman with a shaved head, against a blue background featuring a spaceship and a planet. The font is sleek and futuristic.

Thoughts on using modern terms or slang in a fantasy setting? I know some readers have very… strong opinions about this, but what if it is intentional? What if there is a reason for it and it comes from a character from a more advanced society? I’m curious what you all think.

With Kīlauea back in the headlines, I’m thinking about the fault lines in Inversion—where boiling rock meets a fragile atmosphere and people choose who we are to each other when the ground won’t hold still. If you like grounded cli-fi with a geologic heartbeat, you might like it.

ICYMI: I've been testing the "book club" functionality on The Book Radar and I think it's pretty cool. Would love to see more people give it a try. This month's read is "The House at the End of Lacelean Street" by Catherine McCarthy!
