Myth, the Universe, and Everything

It used to be that on Tuesdays, I'd open my LJ feed and get bombarded with teasers from the various authors I followed. I don't know that Teaser Tuesday is still a thing, but after chatting with the other Substraters, we decided we'd promote that old tradition with our own Tuesday Tidbits. Each Tuesday (we hope!), we'll be posting a tidbit over at the Substrate blog from our various works. This week, Vlad Barash kicks us off with an excerpt from his current WIP, LukOL. I hope you'll check it out, and if you're not already subscribed to our feed on LJ, you can do that here.

Other folks are also making new appearances online -- I just discovered that Baeg Tobar writer friend Daniel Tyler Gooden has a facebook page for his writing. He's currently promoting his recent self-published novel, Cinnamon, Cayenne, and Fire.



My PW editor for SFF reviews, Rose Fox, who blogs over at Genreville, is soon to be editing a Kickstarted anthology, Long Hidden: Speculative Fiction from the Margins of History. They've just hit a stretch goal that will be opening them to more submissions, and if they hit the next stretch goal ($9000 away with 12 days left), they'll be increasing the art to go in the anthology. I'm very excited about this book, and I hope that more folks will consider contributing, especially if you appreciate multicultural speculative fiction.

Clearly I'm promoting more Kickstarters than I used to -- what Kickstarter projects do you think deserve some extra love?
