Does anyone know if there's a list (preferably as a spreadsheet) of entries? I want to make sure they're all on IndieStoryGeek.com (like I did for the first ) but the listing on the website, while gorgeous, is a bit cumbersome.

Since it’s finals day (!) I thought I’d celebrate with a sale - grab an eBook copy of Aestus 1 🥉 for ~60% off!

@bookstodon I've only read Aestus myself (I loved it so much I wrote my own *very* spoilery review: fediverse.blog/~/TheBeastAtTan - I've got spoiler-free reviews on my Bookwyrm too if anyone hasn't read but is curious, link in my profile) so I have no comments on the others - please add yours if you've read any of the finalists!

I feel it's really important to promote this kind of stuff in the fediverse.

The results of the SPSFC final are out - congratulations to all!

I don't know how many of the authors are on Mastodon, but I felt it was important to promote the results.

If any read this: well done! Getting to the final is a huge achievement and really shows the quality of your work.

Though reviews in a contest may by nature seem clinical, remember: your books always evoke a strong emotional response of joy in your readers too 😊

Felt like writing some of my thoughts about Aestus, by S. Z. Attwell. This is basically all spoilers - I have spoiler-free reviews on my Bookwyrm.

As Aestus Book 1 is a finalist in the SPSFC competition this weekend, I felt it was a good time to write something more detailed about why I love these books.

Whelp, I guess yesterday's good news was too much for the universe because I spent the morning in the ER after taking a nasty spill on the ice. Nothing broken, but my knee is pretty bad and I've met my 2023 deductible. 😬
I'm stuck on the sofa in an immobilizer and I'm going to try to make the most of it, but I'm not good at sitting still, so this is going to be interesting.

Holy crap! A Space Girl From Earth is now a Self Published Science Fiction Competition () semifinalist! This is kind of huge news for me because I was certain I'd be cut thus round! Both me and my good friend, author J Daniel Layfield advanced to the next round and I can't wait to see what happens next!
