Robin CM Duncan

Tomorrow! Will there be enough books, enough tablet, enough chat to keep it all going? While I fret slightly about that, why not come along to celebrate forty years of great writers and great people.

This is so cool. Very excited to be in this anthology, to be published by @guardbridgebooks.bsky.social, and that my story “Road Music” will be in such awesome company.

So proud that my story “Over the Mountain” is in this book. #HAVERIN

Two days, humans and otherwise of the blue place. TWO DAYS. Full programme (including the British Fantasy Awards!) and ticketing details over on our website: britishfantasysociety.org/events-2/fan...

It’s true, I have a new book out, and it’s a chonker; three novels and two short stories. The complete #quirk&moth, so far…

Check out this unboxing video for the new Overarch Omnibus, collecting all of our Robin CM Duncan's Quirk & Moth books so far! It's completed by two short stories, including new tale 'The Higeia Hijack'. Sadly, we have been told the cat does not come with the purchase. @robincmduncan.bsky.social

Wow, how is @britfantasysoc.bsky.social's #Fantasycon in Glasgow only... FOUR DAYS AWAY???!!! Day tickets available! I have plenty still to do in prep, and here is what I am prepping for.

As ever, it was fun to chat with Noor about the wonder of conventions, and @britfantasysoc.bsky.social Fantasycon in particular. Coming to Glasgow next weekend! Tickets available via the BFS website britishfantasysociety.org/events-2/fan...

As Bob Hoskins used to say "It's good to talk", and it was great fun to talk to Karin about British Fantasy Society Horizons, the society's biannual anthology of fiction, poetry and art. Fiction submissions open now! britishfantasysociety.org/get-in-touch...

Still time to catch the latest episode of BFS Long Story Short podcast, with real live movie star @zoefcunningham.bsky.social chatting about the art and business of making films britishfantasysociety.org/blog/bfs-pod...

Ah, this does the heart good… 😃

I had great fun chatting to Karin, wearing my BFS Horizons editor hat. (Of course there is an actual hat.)

BFS Horizons open for short fiction subs!!

It was great fun to record an excerpt for the podcast. Many thanks for the invite. These guys really know their Who; it’s a great listen.

Still time to listen to Lex Croucher discussing among others, their dark academia fantasy novel THE UNMAGICAL LIFE OF BRIAR JONES, before tomorrow's new episode drops. Lex answers important questions like ‘What type of armour is best worn to a book signing?’ britishfantasysociety.org/.../bfs-podc...

Delighted my story "Over the Mountain" appears in the GSFWC antho HAVERIN celebrating the Circle's remarkable 40th anniversary with 40 stories from members past & present, launching at Fantasycon in Glasgow, October. I’m forever grateful to this endlessly supportive group of truly excellent writers.

This was an excellent chat; you need more ballet-set fantasy fiction in your life, you just don't know it yet.

Another really enjoyable interview, this time the great R.J. Barker.

This is a great story.

Prodigious creator Janet Forbes joins to talk all things @worldanvil.com; 3M members can’t be wrong! Rob & Dave put a tea cosy over their brains’ worst impulses & let auto-magic do the rest; TTRPG chat in abundance & more than one moment when the whole cast slips sideways into an alternate reality

We have crossed the £1k mark! Which is immensely exciting. And, in an entirely pre-meditated and deliberate choice to heighten the drama, we have less than 2 days to raise the remaining £2500... A touch too much drama, perhaps? Tell your friends, tell your family (especially that rich aunt).

Time for the BFS podcast roundup, hosted by our Robin CM Duncan and David Green! January's guests include Priya Sharma, Cheryl Morgan, and two oddly familiar names... Audio link below: @cherylmorgan.bsky.social @robincmduncan.bsky.social @britfantasysoc.bsky.social @davidgreenwriter.bsky.social

Even as ICE receives $170B in new funding, it has stopped paying for medical care for detainees — including life-saving medications, dialysis, and chemotherapy treatments. Remember: Over 70% of detainees have no criminal convictions. Cruelty on steroids.

Our Robin CM Duncan is a regular host on the BFS podcast, Long Story Short. Listen to all of this month's chats -- including Joe Hill, Stewart Hotston, Nicholas Briggs & Steve Lyons, and Marve Michael Anson -- at the link below. @britfantasysoc.bsky.social @robincmduncan.bsky.social

This was such a pleasure; best fun that you can have on the 'radio'.

Easiest interview I’ve ever done; @joe-hill.bsky.social answered my questions before I asked them. It was almost as if he had a key that let him look inside my head… 🤔🤯

It’s an honour and an exciting challenge to take on this role; and was a great privilege to learn the ropes under the mentorship of Pete Sutton, who we wish the very best.

We had a lot of fun appearing on Nasrullah’s podcast. Come for a listen and get @davidgreenwriter.bsky.social and my perspective on World Fantasy / Fantasycon!

Seconded.

David & Robin meet publisher, editor, & author William C. Tracy of Space Wizard Science Fantasy to chat WorldCon, indie small press publishing, book selling, cats, bees, and commas. #bfslss #swsf #spacewizardsciencefantasy #podcastepisode #indiepublisher britishfantasysociety.org/blog/bfs-pod...
