Good news: I now have a ~500 word flash fiction roughly ready to submit to next month's #SciFanSat

Bad news: It took on a life of its own, and feels only tenuously linked to the theme #Hope. Not sure whether to try and massage it, or leave it as its own thing and start a new one.

In October time
When the moon is high
You can stretch right out
And spook a guy!
When the moon is high
They’ve got ghosts,
They’ve got ghosts,
They’ve got, g-g-ghosts
On their minds!
Have a trick, have a treat
Go out there,
Give a scare!
And have yourself a time!

From the staff of #SciFanSat and all the alumni who voted for their favorite #SFF authors in the September poll, we congratulate Kayleigh Kitt, @spellboundscribe.bsky.social, who earned a 2026 Bartleby B. Boar Nomination for their short story, “The Grey Wash”!

It absolutely does count. :-)

SciFanSat receives many dozens of submissions for each issue, and as the editor, I often reject half or more. It's competitive, we're a real publication, and your writing made the cut! I'm glad you sent it in, and I am happy to have it in the magazine! :-)

Some things can be done, but some things shouldn't be... and sometimes, sacrifices have to be made for the greater good. My latest flash science fiction story, 'FOR SCIENCE!', is published today by @scifansat.bsky.social !

So pleased to have been accepted into this month's magazine with so much great work from other great authors! My piece, "Spirit in the Walls," is from an upcoming work and I'm so proud of how it turned out. Go read all the things!

“Until Finished, the Mission Continues”

October’s #SciFanSat cover art I made for issue 39 coming out this Saturday, on Halloween! I wanted to mix science fiction with the supernatural for the holiday, but instead of horror my goal was ghostly stoicism.

He glares through a thicket of crucifixes within the exorcism trap.

“Scared of returning to Hell, ghost?” the televangelist yells.

The phantom walks through it all and grabs the preacher’s throat. “Wrong team. Satan didn’t send me to stop your sins.”

It's nearly deadline time!

I've just submitted a short to #SciFanSat👽🐉 called "404 – Eternal Sleep Not Found"; hopefully you'll get to read it soon.🤞

This month's theme is "Spirit", so get your writing in before Jason's famously hijacked uplink gives up the ghost (see what I did there?😉)

There came a day
When I simply passed away
Now “Boo” is all they say about me!

The end came, ya know?
I’m just a ghost and so:

Life
Goes on
Without me,
‘Cause

I-I-I-I-I ain’t got no body!
