Right REVIEWS Quote Fogg’s focus on endings and societies declining or being destroyed may hit harder today than when these stories were originally written, which is why her consistent emphasis on the power of beauty—if not to save then at least to somehow redeem such endings—is important. reviewer: Stephen Case 23 February 2026 Strange Horizons

ohhh my god read GRIEF EATER!! it is my new favorite horror novella. oh my god. everyone read it (out 1 June) by @redscribe.bsky.social 1/3

A pained face tilted upward, blood runs from the mouth Text reads Grief Eater, Emma Osborne

At the core of horror is humanity

Grief Eater by @redscribe.bsky.social is a walking trauma. A visceral examination of a tormented and victimized psyche, but also a healing of ever present wounds, the kind that never quite become scars.

Painful, honest, gory and queer

I loved it

Out June 1, 2026

So delighted that we get to publish this amazing book!

latest in the series I'm facilitating!! it's @mariness.bsky.social !

i bought the future second by second a while back and read it yesterday. if you're looking for an optimistic post apocalyptic read about neighbors helping neighbors and building a stable society even with the threat of raiders and internal betrayal, i highly recommend.

i just ordered book 2.

My novella SWEETSIDE MOTEL sits on a circular wooden tray with a cup of coffee, a tealight in a black lantern, and a black plate with a blueberry muffin and a sharp paring knife on it.

My pandemic gothic novella SWEETSIDE MOTEL is now out in the world from @interstellarflight.bsky.social! Perfect for serving to the stranded traveller who has been forced to quarantine in your home.

As part of our ongoing series on queer speculative disability poetry, read Mari Ness' poem "Ah Yes, the Trick"
The trick is —
