We Who Hunt Alexanders by Jason Sanford
We Who Hunt Alexanders is on the longlist of nominees for the BSFA Awards in the Best Shorter Fiction category!
Many thanks to everyone who loved the novella and all the members of the British Science Fiction Association who nominated it! @apexmag.bsky.social www.bsfa.co.uk/bsfa-awards-...
So I have been primarily offline from social media for ages it feels like. Second half of 2025 went insane and January 2026 hasn't been easy. But hopefully no one minds I drop a little seasonal feels... We have a ton of snow and it makes me think of this poem.

I have come to terms with the Thing I Hate not being made for me, and have moved on to two splendid pastimes: enjoying Other Things with my time, and being happy that other people enjoy Their Thing.
Great, insightful review of We Who Hunt Alexanders by @princejvstin.com on @nerdsofafeather.bsky.social. "I look forward to more voices in Sanford’s fugue of resistance and response to violent patriarchy and the forces that nurture it." @apexmag.bsky.social www.nerds-feather.com/2025/11/book...
So today is Thanksgiving. Would be if I celebrated in this far away country. That brings up a lot of memories. And always makes me think of this excellent story by @kojiadae.bsky.social published by @apexmag.bsky.social

Less than 24 hours left in the Apex Magazine Kickstarter. If they get a few thousand dollars more the world gets to read a special issue of Apex focused on unpublished authors!
Spider looks sad. I want to snuggle it.
Hellllooooo from the static! It is fundraising season for many spec mags out there. We are doing things a little differently with a small gofundme to help us into 2026.
We are already at $2 and just need a little boost to help us to our goal of $2400 👻

want to buy my ENTIRE DIGITAL CATALOG?
well you can do that AND benefit Apex! It's an add-on!
Are you remembering to stretch? With 53 hours to go as of this post, @apexmag.bsky.social has lots of stretch goals yet to unlock. Like a 5th issue dedicated to previously unpublished authors, since Apex loves to support those debuts.

Knowing that Apex Magazine will still exist next year brightens my day. As an extra bonus, I get to go to the library today.
If you're a procrastinator like me time is running out :) just pledged!!
Intriguingly, the Danish name for this is NOT witch's butter. That's a slime mold instead.
French toast is not frivolous. You deserve more frivolity.
