I'll be at Levitation 2024 this week, there are the panels where you can find me. If I'm not here I'll probably be at the bar and do say hello if you see me :)

I didn't win the BSFA award, it went to a very deserving Emily. But I had an awesome time at Levitation 2024! Met lots of great people, saw interesting panels and faced my public speaking phobia by going on some myself. One with @MVMelcer and @burtkenobi Can't wait for next year

Pictured, the two reasons I now write less than I'd like. (It's a fair trade.)

It's hard to get the next story done when the dog insists on having his paw held 🙄 But how can you say no?

On the none writing side, I managed to get silver at the English open in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the 100kg advanced division. Not bad for a middle aged science fiction author!

I can finally announce this, I'm going to be a comedy sci-fi anthology that will launch at worldcon in Glasgow! It's full of great authors and I'm very excited for it. theslab.press/2024/07/12/toc…

A rewatch of Deep Space 9 inspired this flash fiction making writing it possibly the nerdiest thing I've ever done :)

My time at Glasgow 2024, A Worldcon For Our Futures just got even better. I'm now spending Thursday night debating what the best Sci fi show of the 90's is. Honestly this weekend is becoming the thing of dreams!

We had a full house my discworld panel moderated by the wonderful Samuel Poots at Glasgow 2024, A Worldcon For Our Futures I am genuinely living the dream!

Ah Worldcon. I had my first book launch for the laughs in space anthology. Did two panels with great turnouts. Met plenty of awesome people and just had an incredible time with great friends I never get to see. It was that good I'm already plotting my next con!

The Martian Incident is $0.99/£0.99 today. I thought it was going to be tomorrow but I apparently can't read🤣. It's a sci-fi thriller set in the 2070s about an American team makes an incredible discovery deep beneath the Martian surface. Links in reply. #SciFiFri #indiebooks

This week in Danforth's shower thoughts that he turns into flash fiction, your mean grandma goes to sell her memories!

The assistant editor is not being quite as helpful as he thinks he is by blocking me getting to the keyboard. But he's doing his best!

I have a new story out today with Manawaker Studio! A fun little flash inspired by automation in the cleaning industry and will people turn to human cleaners as the posh option.

#questpit #SF #A #T #W #MY DEATH ON THE NILE x TITANIC + cyberpunk aesthetics + the spirit of Lincoln Child & Crichton novels. The whole world watches the AI cruise ship Thalassic's maiden voyage from Neo Mumbai to the Maldives. Nothing can derail her itinerary. Not even murder.
