The idea of reading PENNY BLACK’s introduction came from participating in TiF (Top in Fiction)’s 2026 Summit. TiF organized dozens of Substack writers to read from their works live over the weekend of January 17-19.
I screwed up the tech side and went live with my phone lying horizontal rather than vertical. Horizontal seems like an appropriate condition for a weekend. Nonetheless, it did not lend itself to a good viewing.
Apologies to TiF mastermind Erica Drayton for my mistake!
I have taken the video and reformatted it here, so at least you can watch it without having to crane your neck.
PENNY BLACK will begin serializing in February!
