Happy Halloween, everyone! It's also LAUNCH DAY for my new novella, HE FORECLOSED ON MY HEART. The paperback is available on Amazon, and the ebook is available at most online bookstores. The book is a New Adult romance set in the exciting world of Beverly Hills real estate. A sheltered, naive college student gets an internship at a real estate firm during a summer break and falls in love at first sight with guess who? Yeah, the real estate tycoon boss. Nassim narrates her story, which is sometimes sweet, sometimes salacious, always sincere! Today I am also promoting my novel BEER POUR in a Book Funnel promo for author besties.

Yay! This #SolarPunkSunday I just learned that my novella, The Blossoming of the Big Tree, is the #SFFBookClub pick for November, so I'm excitedly waiting to see what discussions come up. It's the story of an old woman who coordinates the defense of her decentralized nation, which thrives in a post capitalist world. Read a sample and get it here, or in major stores. https://www.ododopress.com/novellas/the-blossoming-of-the-big-tree/ Here is the original announcement. https://weirder.earth/@picklish/117480960032544259 #book #bookstodon #book #solarpunk #sff

My first book, The Dream Pyjamas, was a huge hit at 44 Grieve Avenue, though sadly overlooked by every major award. My second, 36 years later, has had slightly better luck...Drystone - A Life Rebuilt has been shortlisted for the Saltire Society Non-Fiction Book of the Year 2026. The biggest literary prize in Scotland. I think about where I've come from, and I genuinely cannot believe I'm here. #WritingCommunity #Writing #Book #Books #Scotland #News #UK

🗨️ 👩🏽‍💻 This is by far the most harrowing #book I've read about #gaza to date: ⚠️ It's certainly not recommended for anyone diagnosed with PTSD However, I highly recommend this account of daily life in a Gaza hospital to those working in #medicine or #emergency services - As a first responder accustomed to blood, treating accident victims, I could not read a single page without bursting into tears - Author: Dr Salman Khalid, Canadian ER #physician at Al-Aqsa Hospital 2024 #books #palestine

“Easy to Learn, Difficult to Master” by David Kushner and Koren Shadmi. A dual biography covering a few years' rivalry between Nolan Bushnell and Ralph Baer during the 1970s, including fantasy gaming encounters between the two. There are a few charming moments, but the one-color artwork is underwhelming. Al Alcorn is drawn as the wrong character on page 51. Possibly #3 in a series of graphic history reviews. #videogames #atari #history #histodons #comic #comics #artwork #graphicnovel #book

More from the opening notes of the #Anarchist #Medical #Bookhttps://anarchistmedicalbook.com As Christopher Schwarz noted in The Anarchist's Tool Chest (Highly recommended book, but hard to find in physical form), these days paying for things is considered good, and doing things yourself is considered fringe behaviour. Additionally he said "The mere act of owning real tools and having the power to use them is a radical and rare idea that can help change the world around us..." this is as true of medicine as it is of woodworking, or any other craft. There are means of production to be seized, and it doesn't have to happen on a grand scale, just on your own scale. "[Tools and skills], in the dawn of the world were a [human's] first, best friends. They remain [thier] best friends still in a world grown old and infinitely complex. By means of them [they] can unlock the doors to a life of creative activity that is full of interest. Without them [they are] a mere shadow of the [humans they] might be." ---Charles .H. Hayward,The Woodworker, 1954

📚️ Yiddish: Biography of a Language "He addresses key aspects of Yiddish as the language of a diasporic population, whose speakers have always used more than one language. As the vernacular of a marginalized minority, Yiddish has often been held in low regard compared to other languages, and its legitimacy as a language has been questioned." 🔗 https://global.oup.com/academic/product/yiddish-9780190651961 #Yiddish #Language #Biography #Linguistics #Reading #UniversityPress #Academia #Nonfiction #Book #Books #Bookstodon

Cover reveal! I'm working on a new collection of short stories, which is on pre-order and will release on 1st January 27. They are mostly horror stories, some with familiar creatures like vampires and zombies, others with stuff you will perhaps be reading about for the first time. Most of the stories will be published for the very first time. https://www.ododopress.com/blog/cover-reveal-the-eater-of-happiness/ #book #books #bookstodon #sff #Horror #writing #writingcommunity #blog #art

I turned up at Waterstones in Worthing to sign some new stock of QUEER ORIGINS and was absolutely bowled over to be greeted by this, in prime position in the shop window! It's so uplifting when booksellers get behind one's book. 💜🌈📚🦋 #book #books #bookstodon #reading #readingcommunity #writing #author #science #nature #animals #evolution #Darwin #history #histsci #histsex #queerhistory #lgbt #lgbtq #lgbtqia
