@understatesmen What have I missed?

[Melanie Harding-Shaw @MelHardingShaw]

Dear Literary Writers. We love your speculative fiction. We love to hear you speak about it. Please, please, please though, understand that literary fiction does not have a monopoly on quality or beautiful prose.

@LRxword Definitely

[Breach SF/Horror @breachzine]

We're bloody stoked to present Breach #12, featuring four stories selected by guest editor @leemurraywriter We have a zombie plague, an avenging goddess in disguise, a trip to Mars and parental guilt. Good stuff! All that, plus this amazing cover from Claire Fitzpatrick!

[Breach SF/Horror @breachzine]

@PaperRoadPress Thanks for the share!

[Breach SF/Horror @breachzine]

We received so many submissions in the last round that @leemurraywriter decided to edit two issues - #12 is now almost ready to go! New fiction from Deborah Sheldon, Tabatha Wood, Tom Adams and LL Hanley, and Claire Fitzpatrick flexes her art skills.

Scariest thing I’ve read all week

[Breach SF/Horror @breachzine]

I’ve become stupidly obsessed with 7-11 coffee. They’re made by robots! And they’re $1! I can’t say no to that.

Would She Be Gone, the first novelette in my Censored City series, is available now on Amazon and Book Depository.

A world on the tipping point of Orwellian Dystopia and the women whose choices will determine which way it falls.
