Reading feeds the brain, sure. But I just spent an hour on the S-Bahn to experience the texture and aroma of biang biang noodles for myself, after #AnnaleeNewitz so beautifully and sensuously described them in their heart- and stomach-warming novella #AutomaticNoodle. Spicy and deliciously eye-watering!

2026 Hugo Awards Reading Challenge #1 – Automatic Noodle by Annalee Newitz
I’ll be driving a lot this week, so I’m starting my Hugo Awards challenge with a couple of audiobooks which fit my schedule. The first is in the Best Novella category and by an authorI’ve been meaning to read for some time, Annalee Newitz’s Automatic Noodle.
Huge thanks to Annalee Newitz for their support of T. K. Rex's brand new solarpunk collection, which is out in a month! Pre-orders are still available and very helpful to a small press.
“Gorgeous, hopeful, and strange, The Wildcraft Drones is a history of the next four millennia that will make you cry — in mourning, and for joy. This is the future that cyborg oak trees and pirate drones want. I do too.”

Fun book! And the first book I've read that mentions Mastodon in the Acknowledgements:
"My late-night friends on Mastodon offered a lot of great ideas about what kind of personality a self-executing contract would have."
