Kristina Ghermann est une illustratrice allemande dont le travail aborde des sujets historiques et/ou merveilleux et de fantasy, dont l'Antiquité. Vous croiserez sur son site une belle illustration de Didon, reine de Carthage, un face à face spectaculaire entre Thétis et Pélée, un flirt entre Achille et Patrocle jeunes, etc. Bref, de jolies inspirations pour "Kosmos". Mais aussi des scènes romaines, des Tudors, des dragons victoriens et pas mal d'autres choses.

Loving “The Priory of the Orange Tree.” Great world building, compelling narrative and characters, and good to see some fantasy cliches turned on their head. It seems rushed somehow, though; I wonder if it could have been two volumes with a little less speeding through some of the story. About eighty pages to go and can barely put it down to toot #fantasy #samanthashannon #fantasybooks #sff #reading #fantasyfiction

Worlds of IF (February 1974)

My mind has been so poisoned by eating disorders rebranded as fitness regimes that I see this magazine as "Worlds Of Intermittent Fasting".

Everything about this is ugly and awful, but somehow not reaching the standard of "so bad it's good". I'm honestly impressed how bad it is.

#WritingWonders 10June- How would you describe your book?

Don't make me do this. 😅

Descriptors: heartwarming, romantic, tropical, funny, sad, philosophical, uplifting, rebellious.

As text: An epic fantasy tale about a young woman searching for a way to help her people. What she finds is knowledge, love, self-acceptance, and the one thing that will save not only her people, but Tredania as a whole: her destiny.

Is that alright?

Dark Horses by #DavidEbenbach

Selling the idea of a lifeboat on a sinking ship—should we use a theme or a motif? What’s the difference? Discuss. An exercise in surreal marketing. 


I read So This is Ever After by FT Lukens on my flight to Chicago after my 17yo niece recommended it to me.

It is a delightful YA m/m fantasy romcom (with other m/f and f/f relationships present too). Light, funny, and very romcom trope-y in all the best ways. I like how the book modeled supportive friend relationships (effectively chosen family) and that in the world everyone is effectively assumed to be bi which opened up some really cool story bits!

Hope Is the Thing With Feathers by Karawynn Long @karawynn


Having one’s intelligence underestimated can be both painful and a terrific advantage. A touching tale of cross-species friendship, communication and collaboration.

From the main trio of Harry Potter series I think Hermione Granger is the only one who could have, under different circumstances, ended up on the dark side. I decided to ask the mighty AI how that would look like.

Going to do something wild for my #fantasy story and completely cut out do-support for dialogue. What does that mean?

It means 'do' won't be used to form negative sentences or questions, so the sentences:

"I don't know." -> "I know not."
"Do you know him?" -> "You know him?"

Why am I doing this? Because it's fun! (I have a good in-universe explanation, I swear!) #WritingCommunity #AmWriting

#writingWonders 10/6 how would you describe your story: fun, epic, dark, sad, etc.? Why?

I like to describe it as grimdark. May not be the correct term, as my story does exude *some* hope, but all of the important characters (even the villain) are *all* morally grey, are always fuelled by their own desires rather than the greater good and there's an underlying air of despair too.

... And lots of people die gratuitously.

Started listening to #lambert again after a long time as it's great music for focused work. #open and #false are great records!

Surprised #m83 didn't make it to the top, as I was listening a lot to #fantasy such a great summer record 🌞

I really like the new #SleepToken album but it does have a couple of fillers. #chokehold is probably the best song they've ever written.

Also jammed some #converge and new #paramore because why not 🤷‍♂️

(A.I.-generated)
When this one came to life it asked, 'Why am I green?' I couldn't answer that question, it's just mystery of the universe that can't be answered for the stuff I render.... 'I just like green, and sometimes I go, what if (insert thing that's normally not green)... but instead it's green,' is what I replied, knowing such an answer would never truly satisfy. 😂

61293 words for Days of Baromir. I don't know but this one seems almost done, I say by the middle of next week I'll be closing this up. Had some words with my editor and we're not vibing right now, so there's that. I'm going to see how things go in the next couple of weeks before I decide to keep using her for editing. I can do it myself but I figure another set of eyes helps, but I don't know right now.

The more I look the more questions I have—what's happening on the left of his chest? What's around his shoulder? Why did he sit down in a hedge (at twilight?) to adjust his weirdly fragile looking raygun? Are those patches of white at the bottom his legs or damage to the magazine?

Pairs well with Arkady and Boris Strugatsky’s Roadside Picnic. The story also uses the word "stalker" on several occasions.

#WritingWonders 6.n — Do natural calamities play a role in your story?

In one sense, the entire world is a natural calamity, but if you and your parents have lived your entire life in a climate disaster, are you going to think that?

Translated into the deep background of the #sff universe, there's really only this: A high-heat storm kills a secondary character's mother—who will incidentally be another secondary character's second love-of-his-life. His life is totally tragic. [Any more would be spoilers.] The main character experienced the steaming storm in her childhood, but from safer ground, and helped cleanup in the aftermath, which provides a sense of commonality within the story.

Maybe I should name the storm Cyclone McMuffin?

#gayBookReview "Deception" is an Arabian Nights #erotic #menage #fantasy by Grace R. Duncan.

Cyrus and Nadir are palace pleasure slaves, but also lovers, which is complicated. When an assassin threatens King Bathasar's life, his lover Teman convinces him to bring Cyrus and Nadir into their relationship to help protect him. If things were complicated before, they're even more so now, as the four men do more than pretend to be lovers.

"Kazti Girls," by Sciascia DeKay.

They have a tradition in the City of Azturaj of inviting Kazti girls into their homes to celebrate the year’s end.

The Kazti people live outside the city walls in turf huts with no material possessions but the plain, frayed dresses that leave their arms and ankles bare, and the earthen pots they use for cooking over open fires.

9. Do natural calamities play a role in #Threads ?
There's a number of 'calamities' but they are either caused by humans or by Supernatural powers.

8. What are weddings like in #Threads
As it's set in an #alternateTimeline to our world (Imagine there was no American War of Independence, plus magic) weddings are much the same as in our world. I.e. There's a *huge* variety of traditions and cultures around marriage!
I haven't thought much about weddings in Threads, beyond the one that takes place in the second boo, but I'm not saying *anything* about that!

#Tolkien makes *a lot* of knowing winks to philologists in his fiction. In a letter he confesses, for instance, that the dragon Smaug's name is "a low philological jest". It is the past tense form of the old Germanic verb *smugan*, 'to creep, crawl'.

Swedish still has this verb, *att smyga*. And it is the etymological background to the name of a fishing village and resort town on the country's SW coast. Smaug should thus be named SMÖGEN in Swedish translation.

The 2022 Aurealis Awards were presented last night.

For those of you unfamiliar with them, they are Australia's premier juried award for speculative fiction. I had the great honour of judging the Best Fantasy Novel panel.

Congratulations to all the winners!

Stephen Colbert to Produce ‘Chronicles of Amber’ TV Series Adaptation

[I've always said that Nine Princes in Amber by Zelazny, et al, should be adapted. And I see now it's been set up as of January. I missed the announcement. But that's great. Colbert will see it's reasonably faithful and high quality.]

Roger Zelazny and I were friendly and I am his fan.

Have a great Saturdey, #fediverse
Here is my favourite FFXIV commission duo from 2021. I was doing flat designs only back then and sometimes I miss intricate simplicity of these. :)
I guess both are very summer-themed. Which team are you? Team sun or team sea? :D
