Putting this out there again, because I'm unsure how reach works in the Fediverse and how I can connect to the people I want to find:
Any SFF/horror writers out there writing in unorthodox styles, formats, or mediums? Mild or extreme, books with other stories in the footnotes, flash fiction universes, or stories told via geocache, doesn't matter. I wanna connect!

That's exactly what I've been writing this whole time! 🤩
Right now I'm working on a five-hundred-years history of a library, written by historians of the 25th Century. They use footnotes to explain what happened in the last five centuries to readers who have lived... somewhere else 👀
@clockwooork HELL YEAH footnotes seem to be a slightly more common unorthodox technique in genre fiction and I'm so glad to see it. In-universe texts are also such a fascinating concept, too, good on ya.
See, myself, I'm writing fantasy flash fiction, totally against the grain of the popular notion of what fantasy "must be", so I gotta embrace anyone doing anything different.
Good god I LOATHE the current golden standard of 10-books-long fantasy epic sagas. Give me some of your flash fiction!
Seán!
