Did I ever post this very silly video of our latest jam game, Space Forg?

I also tried to be cheeky and put my commander and his sunforge squad in reserve, which was a huge mistake. It meant i didn't have them on the board on an already weak early game detachement, and they also could've bullied my opponent's daemon prince pretty hard.

there's a finished draft, and I'd say it's about 50% a complete mess and 50% the best writing of my career, and The Sunforge felt more like 70/30 on that equation and I wrangled it. I can do this thing.

Just tore through @understatesmen.bsky.social's The Sunforge and man, I loved The Dawnhounds but this really feels like the Harrow to its Gideon in the best way; absolutely blows the first novel out of the water in scope and scale while also enriching that first novel and making it more re-readable

I think the most recent was The Sunforge by Sascha Stronach, the sequel to The Dawnhounds. Both novels are terrific and very mind-fucky.

Yup, that’s how this month has gone, nothing for ten straight days and then three books in 24 hours lmao.

Anyway my insatiable curiosity has led me to Sundown in San Ojuela by @olivasthewriter.bsky.social today! Super excited, I’ve heard literally nothing about this so it’s a true blind read.

I suppose I should introduce the girls

Joan is a Sigi Sabre Pro, and was the present I got myself for handing in The Sunforge.

Abigail was my first sword, a Regenyei cuphilt rapier that I purchased from another trans woman out of the back of her car in a train station parking lot

NEW VIDEO ALERT! Today on Bar Cart Bookshelf we're talking about THE SUNFORGE by @understatesmen.bsky.social. The perfect inflection point of science fantasy, this novel was emotionally affecting and all too timely, a book that utterly swept me along. Our drink, Radovan, is a city on fire.

this essay is spot on in a very depressing way re: the trials of writing as an Antipodean for the international (ie. US) market.

& I'm looking forward to reading The Sunforge and happily having the piss taken out of my country's cricket prowess.

book 116 The Sunforge @understatesmen.bsky.social - I loved Dawnhounds, but I found myself a little thrown to start with this one. May have benefitted from a re-read 1st, but got there in the end, as everything started falling into place. Like Rakesfall, with the multi-lives of characters recurring.

Semi regular: if you liked The Dawnhounds or The Sunforge, please leave a review! Reviews are a huge driver of sales, if you want to help an author without spending a cent, say something nice about their book.

graphic design is also my passion I am embracing this energy
AWARDS ELIGIBILITY POST basically everything I've worked on this has got pushed back to Q1 2025 so uuuh novel: the sunforge (you read it right please say you read it lie to me idc) essay: Is it possible to keep your voice and soul while writing for an international market (at The Spinoff, people actually read this one, please nominate me for best related work or whatever they're calling their category so they don't have to call it 'misc') also there is a rather fetching and extremely good and artistic picture of a duck
