Check out the latest Rite Gud where @benedict_rs and Lola Sebastian talk about speed reading and speed writing and how it may not be great! kittysneezes.com/dont-gotta-go-…
The Book Club episode of The Demolished Man is up for patrons! check it out!! patreon.com/posts/demolish…
While you were listening to the brand new episode of Rite Gud, we were studying the blade. We talk with Johanus Haidner about swordsmanship. kittysneezes.com/fite-gud-sword…
The latest book club episode is live for patreons! This month, Simon McNeil and Raquel talk about Ionesco's absurdist play "Rhinoceros". patreon.com/posts/based-an…
Our latest episode is live! @devilsdoorbell_ joins us again to talk about more bad writing advice! kittysneezes.com/more-bad-writi…
What is more hopefully punk than continuing on when no one loves you? Where is the complexity? I'm sorry you will all find this offensive but you all should be called CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE SOUL Sff. Am I against that?? No. Chicken soup all you want but please calm down+
And I as a very visibly marginalized brown queer neurdivergent/ person with mental health issues finds the concept of hope punk the way it is portrayed in sff very off putting because it is so singular in its focus.
Combat the darkness with your hopeful stories. I support you but don't get all hurt when I tell you that when I read something called hope punk a lot of the time (not always) it is a very superficial story with lines drawn around who is bad and who is good.
Now ppl won't read after my first post but whatever. Hopepunk the history I'm not perfect on but it lives in the shadow of game of thrones?? And grim dark. Okay cool. We have this movement, kindness soft feels, positivity. Am I against that? No. Go on do your stuff. +
Update drama post. Let's be meta and esoteric which sffh CANNOT HANDLE.. Horror is actually more hope PUNK then anything called hope punk. Yes yes hopeful stories are great, keep writing them and enjoy! but on a meta level having hope after a horror is more "punk" than anything?
Hey everyone, we took a hit to our subscription income this month due to Patreon going haywire and cancelling a bunch of subs. So if you like what STP does, please consider subscribing or resubscribing, it's more important than usual for us this month. patreon.com/seizethepress
In our latest episode, we talk to @kjy1066 about writing the Other and not trying to homogenize all cultures while you do it. kittysneezes.com/other-rite-gud/
Happy to be the magazine that brings you this bleak, completely downer story about loneliness, poverty, and a depressed trans guy fucking a mould monster. "MYCOPHILIA" by @BridhC from Issue #7 is now free to read! Enjoy 🍄 seizethepress.com/2023/04/15/myc…
Still haven't seen any articles hyping AI writing that explain how creating exponentially more "content" will magically create exponentially more readers. Because otherwise who is it possibly helping except the tech companies?
Hi folks! Effective today, we're raising our rates from 9c to 10c a word. We're also making this retroactive. Anyone we've published since 3/1 will get an extra payment this week to cover the difference. Thanks to all our readers, writers, & subscribers for making this possible
For next month's Book Club, we're reading Eugene Ionesco's Rhinoceros!
Popped an edible, about to watch Castle Freak (c/o @FeastLast in @RiteGud discord). Wish me luck
Call me an optimist, but if social media really implodes / declines in use I think that probably will be a net gain for books and magazines. Yes, twitter has helped with discovery for some but I think "sucks up people's time they might spend reading" is a bigger factor.
Also from Kittysneezes, if you're a fan of awesome and experimental music, check out the 10-year strong Legendary Pink Dots Project where Adam and Tom review every single LPD record! Dig it!

@RiteGud @benedict_rs Read this for English class in secondary school (along with some other surrealist work) Have never forgotten its vibe, not the slightly queasy fascination those stories and plays held for me

Hi folks! Effective today, we're raising our rates from 9c to 10c a word. We're also making this retroactive. Anyone we've published since 3/1 will get an extra payment this week to cover the difference. Thanks to all our readers, writers, & subscribers for making this possible
Call me an optimist, but if social media really implodes / declines in use I think that probably will be a net gain for books and magazines. Yes, twitter has helped with discovery for some but I think "sucks up people's time they might spend reading" is a bigger factor.

@RiteGud @misterbloat Thank you for taking the time to fix it. I really enjoyed the episode; it was my first time listening. And it was a nice little surprise at the end to get mentioned too!
@RiteGud @misterbloat Guessing the later. It happens!
Hmm okay here's one: barring having a runaway best seller, there's not much you can do to ensure your next book will sell. You can get great reviews, earn out every time, make award lists... and still struggle to sell the next book. x.com/chamomeriam/st…
alternatively, what’s a hard to swallow pill for writers/authors, in your experience? either about the process or the industry
An interesting listen!

I look forward to all the people boycotting Chengdu Worldcon also boycotting the UK next year for our inhumane treatment of asylum seekers, support of genocide in Palestine, and bombing Libya out of existence. They'll obviously do the same next time it's hosted in the US too.
great review of The Marigold in Toronto's own @Spacing "The horror that pervades (and is almost more discomfiting than) the Wet is the impact of unbounded capitalism on the environment and the population of the city."
