News Of The WeekNews Of The Week
Welcome to Books & Articles Weekly.
The big news…
Stacker News Fiction MonthStacker News Fiction Month
August is Stacker News fiction month. Here is the official announcement. @Scoresby is the brains behind this idea, which is being jointly sponsored by him along with @TotallyHumanWriter and this territory. As I’m sure many of you know, @TotallyHumanWriter is the editor of the 21 Futures fiction anthology.
So, get busy polishing up those drafts and let’s see who gets to earn some sats.
Don’t forget to also check out the top posts of the week.
Reminder: For the time being I will zap the top post half the rewards I receive before the next week’s issue, rather than split zaps into cowboy credits.
Happy reading!
As always, please reply with suggestions and opinions on how to make this territory better.
