every time carbon removal gets posted about there's a certain "we have trees at home" genre of response. which I get, on some level, because the forces of fossil capital are indeed that comically evil and dishonest. but: 1) actual scientists also research these things 2) they thought of that

Explore @NussbaumAbigail’s review of ABSENCE by @solarshades.club: “It is how we structure our world, and how we treat one another, when the certainties we had taken for granted no longer hold true.”

On August 13, I'll be reading at Best Bookstore Union Square with @solarshades.club - here's the signup if you'll be in the Bay Area that day! I think this is my first whole bookstore event at a dedicated bookstore?! I'm excited! www.eventbrite.com/e/when-world...

I wrote about Absence by @solarshades.club and the surprising idea it captures about the allure of cities theantiquarian.email/archive/the-...

What if the New World "discovered" the Old World, and not vice versa?

Also check out Civilizations: A Book Club for better thoughts than mine from the great @solarshades.club www.solarshades.club/p/civilizati...

This is one of those books where you read the synposis and you're like: This is what I've been waiting for! Congrats, Andrew!

Just finished this book. Probably the best look at how we can, and maybe should, deal with the unknown as a species. Just wonderful.

Heading to NYC to launch my book on Thursday at Lofty Pigeon in Brooklyn! www.eventbrite.com/e/andrew-dan...

if you buy my book you’re allowed to tell people im your friend

Recently finished the novel, Absence, by Andrew Hudson: near future world where people have been popping randomly out of existence for decades. disappearances overtake the death rate. No one knows why. Our protagonist verified absences for the government. Fun premise, well executed, breezy read

Love to canvass

@solarshades.club Andrew taught a Clarion workshop I attended on solarpunk and pens an illuminating newsletter... he's very knowledgeable and great at facilitating discussion on interesting speculative and future-oriented subject matters. I can't wait to read his new novel!

Can't wait to read this one!

Happy publishing day to our very imaginary friend @solarshades.club for the release of his debut novel, "Absence". Check out our interview with him for a closer look at his creative process: csi.asu.edu/projects/int.... "Absence" is available here: www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/803125...

“Hudson gives a skillful metaphysical twist to a tale of apocalyptic horror in this strikingly original novel.” Publishers Weekly starred review! www.publishersweekly.com/9781641297585

Really unfair for @solarshades.club to write a story about how I'm going to do The Big Logoff www.lightspeedmagazine.com/fiction/dad-...

kind of intrigued by the idea of holding global democratic votes for what we name stuff on celestial bodies and the resulting future where all the moons in the solar system are MESSI-1 through MESSI-996 and every crater on the moon is named after a kpop star

Truly the most “nailed it, wish I hadn’t” story I’ll ever write slate.com/technology/2...
