A place to find writers, lit mags and publishers who leap over genre boundaries & out of boxes, ignoring labels & definitions - in their own writing and in what they publish!
A list of authors, book reviewers and publishers
literature people whose existence is one of the recompenses hidden within the horror reader-writer types whose literary taste tends toward formal experimentation and translation and whose politics tend toward the left (nothing meant by exclusion, it won't let me add more, follow at your own risk)
European flavoured writing people and organisations
A few of the writers and thinkers out there creating extraordinary, strange, minor-lit driven things that do not aim to please the dominant aesthetic. [Queue “Is She Weird” by The Pixies.]
Full list containing some amazing authors, agents, publishers and book reviewers, press etc that are great to follow. I will update as I connect with more wonderful people.

Volume 2: Another list of artists who often experiment using a variety of techniques including abstractions and distortions. Concept may be the main ingredient rather than perfection or beauty. Viewer discretion is always advised because art and reactions to it can be intense and very personal.
Artists who work with collage and/or mixed media to connect with on Bluesky, assembled by @allisonanne.com of @twincitiescollage.bsky.social
Must be a writer of some description, have a cat, and not be a twat (I'm a poet)
Being Scottish is a state of mind, if you’re on this list you’re Scottish in my eyes!
Some folk who write and are in Scotland or are Scottish! Very much an incomplete list made by someone who should be writing instead.
