#CoverReveal alert! Behold the cover art for our new anthology Haverin, designed by our own Jenni Coutts. Look carefully and you'll spot some sneaky clues to the tales inside.

Celebrating 40 years of the GSFWC, #Haverin is out October 2026 from Taverna Press. #GSFWC40

The cover of Haverin, the GSFWC anthology, which features a red-haired girl reading while surrounded by books and a cat in a green space. Text reads: Featuring: Neil Williamson, E.M. Faulds, Christopher Caldwell, Eliza Chan and many more. Haverin, Edited by Brian M. Milton, Peter Morrison and Heather Valentine. The back of the cover of Haverin, continuing the green landscape dotted with various creatures, including a robot head, lion, and a pie. Text reads: Haverin, Scots, Verb: Talking in a foolish or trivial manner, speaking nonsense. Glaswegians enjoy a bit of haverin and few enjoy it more than the Glasgow SF Writers' Circle have for the last forty years, following many hard critique sessions with a bit of a haver in the pub. This anthology is a celebration of those forty years, with more than forty stories of Fantasy, Science and the Odd from members past and present. Join us on this fantastical journey, turning havers into stories and revelling in the full range of writing that has come out of the Circle since 1986.

A pile of 3 books, anthologies by the GSFWC in the last 10 years. On top Haverin, then Gallus, and on bottom the 30th anniversary Thirty Years of Rain. Cover artist Jenni Coutts studies a test copy of the book, ensuring that she is happy with how it looks. Brian hitting the big order button having had Jenni's approval. Author Elsie WK Donald, a little grey haired woman. One of the earliest members of the GSFWC and still a regular. She is holding a copy of Haverin, in which she has done the foreword as well as having a story.
