@AickmanWill Congratulations, this looks amazing! The sample art all has a real Wolfe vibe—can’t wait to read it.

[Nathan Hillstrom @NathanHillstrom]

@vanessa_writes Beautiful!! I love the US cover too - totally different styles, but man those luminous daggers in both!

[Nathan Hillstrom @NathanHillstrom]

@beccaquibbles Roo!! ❤️

(The effort of setting up a Clarion tab in this dubious app has been vindicated)

See, I do produce content. Sad yeti is even genre.

[Nathan Hillstrom @NathanHillstrom]

There’s a sad yeti behind Minnehaha Falls right now.

♐ As the week progresses, you'll feel a troubling sense that you're made of paper, and that all paper eventually dissolves in water. Don't worry about it, Sagittarius. Just enjoy your own impermanence and stay out of the rain.

My novelette "Opportunity Space" is now online at @Curiousfictions (originally in @Asimovs_SF, Mar/Apr 2020)

.@NathanHillstrom's "Opportunity Space" is an imaginative ride with intrigue and alien economics—don't miss it: https://t.co/Ajiio4jOcz

"Kova...assisted with blight cleanup before, had transited into new bodies before, but only in controlled volumes—all of it commodity work."

@lswopemitchell @Asimovs_SF I would be, and was wondering if you were the same Lia Swope too - that’s so cool! Minneapolis North High fencing club is well represented in this issue! (Weirdly I even mentioned that I’d started fencing again in my bio).

[Asimov's SF @Asimovs_SF]

@beccaquibbles I did threaten this at Clarion :). Someday.

[Nathan Hillstrom @NathanHillstrom]

@MusicInMyCar @StarShipSofa Thank you!

[Nathan Hillstrom @NathanHillstrom]

The current @StarShipSofa episode features my story "White Dust" (an Asimov's Readers' Award Finalist), with *fantastic* narration by Nicola Seaton-Clark!

…and I just signed an Asimov's contract this morning for a new, 13,000-word novelette! (Issue TBD)

[Tiffany E. Wilson @tiffanyewilson]

So excited to be a part of this micro-antho! My story “Meet Me at State Sponsored Movie Night" is about the small things we do to resist and reclaim our communities. Pledge now to get it plus 7 other amazing stories of resistance.

If you enjoy surrealist fiction but haven't read Sara Saab - you genuinely should.

Try her story in Shimmer 42: A competitive eater lives on a self-driving coastal night train. Passengers seek refuge from, or are perhaps lost to, the sea. Melancholic, layered, and challenging. https://t.co/8tVD47T61V

[Shimmer Magazine @ShimmerStories]

"Almost everyone I entertain over a frosted fifth of vodka—bottle balanced precariously on a foldout tray, half my attention on keeping it upright—wants to know how I became a competitive eater." From @fortnightlysara https://t.co/ToRS1PFo7j Yours today!

[Nathan Hillstrom @NathanHillstrom]

@fortnightlysara I'd consider trading more surrealism for more Saabian SF?

[Nathan Hillstrom @NathanHillstrom]

@fortnightlysara Thanks so much, Sara!! Kind words on surrealism coming from you are <3

[Nathan Hillstrom @NathanHillstrom]

@fortnightlysara Did my parents put you up to this tweet?
