I always tell up-and-coming novelists to use Locus to make sure they're up on the latest SFF news -- deals and deliveries, which agents are worth your time, forthcoming blockbusters, etc. Essential for writers and anyone else who needs to know. Check out their fundraiser and donate if you can!
Locus needs us! https://igg.me/at/locusmag2025/x/23242538

This article surprised me in a few respects & is an important read. Also I’ll never encounter an instance of Israeli courage & solidarity without sharing it. “‘I thought to myself, when I retire, I might conclude this is the most significant lesson I ever gave in civics.’”
