My previous instance is gone and I’ve been away for a while. It’s time for a new #introduction !

I’m Freddie A. Clark, #Horror, #Scifi and #Grimdark #author.
I’ll post about #writing, #books, and my interests (non-exhaustive list ahead):

- Gaming
- #Cats
- Movies & ‘80s/‘90s anime
- Music ( #darksynth, #aggrotech, #metal, #nordicfolk)

My pronouns are they/them (he/him in gendered languages). I’ve been on T for 2 months and underwent top surgery last January.

Hope to find new friends here!

Paging #scifi authors: what are some semi-plausible lucrative materials that can be found in space and thus provide something to fight over?

I already have magnetic monopoles and island-of-stability superheavy elements that can be found in asteroids. Anything else?

I wrote a thing:

The Machines Ran on Anguish
https://yarn.rys.io/the-machines-ran-on-anguish/

This is not my normal thing. I don't usually write fiction. But I had this in the drawer for a while, and I don't think it belongs in the drawer.

So here we are. I spun some yarn.

I am excited to share my very first published article, which explores the thoughts of the 17th-century Moroccan scholar al-Ḥasan al-Yūsī on the acquisition of knowledge from books.

In it, I discuss the importance of books for rural Sufi scholars in the Western Maghrib, the conditions they set for acquiring knowledge directly from books (and not just from their teachers!), and the laborious process of collating and correcting manuscripts.

If you're curious about how pre-modern scholars ensured the accuracy of the knowledge in their handwritten books - and why this was so important to them - please take a look! If you don't have access, feel free to contact me.

Some of you may remember the little writing crisis I had about a year ago. Thanks to your valuable advice, this piece finally came together! 🙏 It's been a bit of a rollercoaster, but I'm really happy with how it turned out.
