(Actually touched on this in the panel about religion in SFFH at Fantasycon - if you're making up a religion for your story, you need to know what that religion thinks of trans folk and disabled folk because both those groups *will* exist in your world - and the point stands more broadly)

I think I have a really warped sense of your relative fame, because you seem to be very Bluesky famous, at least on my relatively tiny slice of Bluesky. Also, I'm a SFFH nerd.

Asking for a student - what are the best MFA programs for a young person who wants to get into speculative publishing? Either traditional or low-residency. Looking for a program that supports SFFH. Suggestions appreciated!

#SFFChat A1 Hi, I'm Anna, I write across the SFFH spectrum. I must admit, I find funerals difficult. I do like it when people read poems out, though. And I have a great fondness for cemeteries, particularly the very old ones that have let nature run wild.
Hello!!! It's the other worm on duty tonight! 🪱🪦

Yes! There's a dearth of reviewers of colour who write about works of authors of colour in SFFH and in particular, Weird, and as you say, SWANA voices

Also totally fair! And even more not my thing 😂😂 when I do step out of SFFH it's usually for something like Reacher because I just want to turn my brain off and watch bad people get beat up LOL

Spinning off from this, one of the big reasons I like reading outside of SFFH (historical, literary, nonfiction etc) besides it just being good for you as a writer, is it's really nice to escape the usual nerd discourses and get reminded that books can have so many more dimensions to them
So many banger lines in this essay honestly, "Morality in fiction is not about trying to ban sucking and fucking. It’s not about trying to clean up or prettify life. It’s about trying to remember that a story has its own moral universe and its own system of weights and measures."
