I’ve loved being a BCS first reader, and also, it is a LOT of work! But I think it’s worth it for the quality of stories we publish. And if you also think that—maybe consider throwing a couple of bucks our way
BCS Patreon has fallen below the monthly amount we need to pay our authors a pro rate and our First Readers a worthy honorarium ($125/mo). Sometimes folks need to lower or pause their support; we understand. But less than 1% of BCS readership donates or supports. www.patreon.com/beneath_ceas... 1/3

As discussed in this episode, there are two kinds of people: people who love PENDA’S FEN and people who haven’t seen it yet
This week's SBG bonus episode is on PENDA'S FEN, a striking BBC teleplay from 1974 wherein an incredibly uptight young man through a series of increasingly anomalous encounters learns to interrogate British identity, personal history, sexuality, religion, and more: www.patreon.com/posts/shelve...

Someone once told me that, whenever she read genre fiction with political/revolutionary themes or messaging—and what genre fiction doesn’t, in this day and age—she could always tell whether the writer had gone to meetings. I think about that a lot.

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

My reach is small, my powers are limited and my influence is non-existent but if this book is even one-fifth as good as The Fortunate Fall it stands a very good chance of being one of the best books of 2026

The Nighthawks diner was based on a diner in Greenwich village, where Hopper was living. But this AI can’t actually provide a historical context for the painting, something for which there might arguably be a use case. All it does is give you a walking tour of West Bummer, Illinois
You know that classic Edward Hopper painting evoking isolation and despair? We used AI to make it look terrible for no reason
