Until consensus turns that Emily's years of actions against white supremacy in genre spaces are the reason she is consistently attacked, this account will be run by her mods for her safety and to share projects dear to her. If you'd like to support Emily, please join her Discord, link on her site.

In celebration of Emily's upcoming 50th, her debut poetry collection is now available for pre-order. Check out the amazing blurbs on the page! (Seriously, 🔥🔥🔥.) She'll also have a few gift copies on her at @wfc2026.bsky.social if you're there! #Poetry #Booksky atthisarts.com/product/word...

New conversation between @tadwilliams.bsky.social and George R. R. Martin on the history of fantasy, the influence of Tolkien, methods of worldbuilding, serieses, and publishing. And - see Tad Williams and Deborah Beale next week at World Fantasy Con! 🪄 #SFF www.youtube.com/watch?v=10U3...

So much gratitude to the @britfantasysoc.bsky.social and to Glasgow for a warm, welcoming, wonderful con with so many fascinating and thought provoking discussions - and celebrations! So grateful to you and your active, passionate work for art and conversation. ❤️ And yes, we had the *best* time. ✨

We hope you'll give a look to the wonderful, evocative writing of Claudia Wair, who has brought together four stories no longer online, in a new collection: ko-fi.com/s/423d0e51d3 #ShortStories @cwtellstales.bsky.social

When our editor was asked by #Kickstarter to recommend one project, she easily chose this one. Khumalo Tales can be read by itself, or pick up the trilogy. We couldn't recommend @zzclaybourne.bsky.social beautiful, powerful storytelling more strongly. Now, live: www.kickstarter.com/projects/obs...

It's just a week until @britfantasysoc.bsky.social Fantasycon and tickets are still available! Our Hugo Award longlisted editor, writer, and poet @edebell.com and Hugo Award winning editor, writer, poet, and British Fantasy Awards finalist @jolantru.bsky.social hope to see you there.

EMERGENCY MUTUAL AID REQUEST 🚨 Just broke my middle finger. Unhoused mentally unwell man yelled/ran at us—Hounds immediately protected me. Their leashes snapped my finger, which was also holding a grocery bag. Since UCLA illegally fired me, I have no health insurance. venmo.com/u/JohnathanPerk

Emily was so excited to see that the Legend John Jennings (she asked us to say it that way) had a short window for character commissions, she felt we all needed some joy. Her request: GHOST LIGHT does whatever he and the artist most want. She hopes you'll enjoy the result. @jijennings.bsky.social

Chris here... sharing to Emily's account, thought her followers might take note.

Emily is very excited to be doing a reading and panel at Fantasycon, and especially celebrating Wolf's Path by @jolantru.bsky.social alongside Wolf, in person. Also, Emily is ready to explore her topic with sensitivity, but also nods to the BFS who clearly noted, "I bet that woman's been drinking."

It's my birthday. The best birthday present you can give a writer is buying/reading their books. This one's a mythic realist tale of a family belonging to a fading extradimensional diaspora set in 90s/00s Calcutta. British Fantasy & Subjective Chaos Kind of Award-winner, Locus nominee:

Not just sitting around... actively protecting the spaces they have privileged access to, denying that CWN are in their own spaces, and erasing and attacking any white person who speaks out while using the necessary caution of black Americans as their justification.

Congratulations to our very own E.D.E. Bell for making the Hugo Awards long form editor long list! We are so grateful for the nominations. We are our stories. #LAconV

Tonight, a group of Jubilee Cho's friends gathered to celebrate her life. Some of us walked afterward to the park entrance to commemorate the event with a photo of her Nebula finalist novel at her favorite place in the world. To #LAconV, we have copies! To those struggling: You are *not* alone. 🏳️‍⚧️

For those who wish to honor the life of Nebula-finalist author Jubilee Cho in her hometown and favorite place on Earth with her personal friends in a casual gathering, please join us tomorrow, Friday, at 7pm at Vista Parkside Market in the Downtown Disney District. 🏳️‍⚧️ 💜 #LAconV

The #LAconV vendor hall is open, and we're so excited to be here. You'll find us in between the Special Guests and Clarkesworld Magazine. We hope you'll come meet us and give these wonderful books a look! 💕

Wonderful breakfast discussion with Oriana Leckert, Head of Publishing at @kickstarter.com at #LAconV. We've had such a supportive relationship from Kickstarter over the years, and are excited to see how these last days for our Woodlands campaign go! (Stop by our dealer hall table to learn more.)

We just posted an update welcoming new backers to Atthis Arts. We hope this introduction to our press and some of our recent titles will help you get to know us better, and perhaps join us, in the woodlands? www.kickstarter.com/projects/att...

Thrilled to see we were the Illustration project chosen by @kickstarter.com to feature in the Projects We Love Newsletter! 💖 #Kickstarter #Illustration www.kickstarter.com/projects/att...

We recently met Barry and Lara bibdu.bsky.social and fell in love with their work and passion for hand-made art. Bibdu is an Irish mythology RPG with open-world exploration and card-based combat. Every detail is so beautiful and thoughtful. How far will you go to become immortal once more?

We are so grateful and joyful to say that the Woodlands book and 2027 Ulla Thynell Calendar are funded and definitely happening! Thank you so much for your support. Now, to soar! #Art #Illustration #Kickstarter #ArtBooks #Books #IndieArt #FantasyArt www.kickstarter.com/projects/att...

This is still Chris -- reposting here.

This is Chris on Emily's account. I'm muting/blocking folks for her health and safety.

Ha, the downvotes on my cover are sneaking up. I would be so honored for you to read my words. This poetry collection took me 50 years to create, and I am very proud of it. I feel blessed, truly blessed, to finally be the storyteller I always needed to be. ❤️ #BookSky

My MIL just said it does burlesque with the clouds and I am 💀. IT DOES.

I am going to miss Mt. Baker and not just because it’s presumably named after Stewart but because it has such a diva personality. Sometimes it hides, sometimes it peeks, sometimes it plays, sometimes it brags. Currently braggin’.

I went to take a photograph and walked into the glass door like a bird, so I'm going to try this again.

It's not true. As I've told you, I've tried to obstruct misogynoir and transphobia and have years of receipts they won't look at. It's clear I can't convince people at this point, so I'm not going to engage. The press will make a plan forward and it clearly can't rely on Ang-NA genre at this point.

I can't read the Sanford article (I think I'm blocked? not sure) but I assure you it's not true. I don't harass him. I don't talk to him. He's never once listened to me or seen my evidence. This is a very very bad thing to do and I hope people see that.

Hey, this is better than I expected! But also, I'd be SO honored and grateful for you to read my words, whatever you think of them. It's fine. www.netgalley.com/catalog/book...

UPDATE: The Strange Horizons fund-drive has completed one week; we're just over 70% base funded. Still a LOT of rewards left to pick up: signed book bundles by your favourite authors, patches, SH wallpaper, and some surprise add-ons coming up. Back us here: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/s...
