Turning a new page on my log book today and wow, there's the centre binding. Time to get a new notebook, obviously. Got to stay prepared.

"I know what I am. I can count my ribs & the tendons in my jaw. I can see my veins & fold myself as flat as my laptop." Where diet culture & toxic technology intertwine, embrace the lies in "For I Never Was So Small" 🍽️ ripe for sampling in LITTLE RED FLAGS darkmattermagazine.shop/products/lit...

Your Lunar New Year TBR is specifically missing SEAsian noir set in Sino-centric space, replete with dumplings, dim sum, Chinese street food, and old Shanghai jazz. And ruled by Wengzai, the dai-est Dai Lou of them all. 🚀🎲📉🔥

for hopeful new year vibes you might like my novella ft. family dumpling scene (you might like the other one if your energy moving into this new year is closer to unhinged)

We’re approaching a month until release day for Cold Snap❄️🍹🦫 There are still ARCs available from NetGalley or directly from me if you want to snag one! (🔗s in bio)

When I find the perfect opening in which to wedge a nice side quest of specific trauma inadequately worked through in my previous stories.

GUYS!! I can’t believe it, but my story tied for 1st place in the Uncanny Reader Poll! I’ve never gotten 1st place in anything, nevermind for something I’ve written, nevermind alongside such insanely good writers. Thank you so much to all the readers! 🙏🏻

LNY fit, dressing for the position in the family heirarchy I pretend to.

hello hello!!! if you read THE DEATH OF MOUNTAINS (published by @lethepress.bsky.social in March 2025) and enjoyed it? maybe you'd consider it for a Hugo nod? thank you so much!!!!

Hi, I want this book to happen. Please make this book happen—back, hit repost, tell a friend. Four days to raise just over $3000, four days to bring more queer stories into the world.

Living deliciously with pre-hotpot anti-histamines and tapping out on prawns (and prawn dumplings, and prawn balls) when the hives are <= 1cm diameter 🦐🗡

Lunar New Year special. For the MG reader in your life. scarletferret.com/books/sun-dr...

I'm looking for SFF shorter than novel length that's about about disrupting capitalism. I don't always disrupt capitalism in my work, but lol I often very much do, and I want to read some work about that currently.

Very late to the party because my preferred music is dead silence, but I finally listened to the new Florence album and O my angry heart 🖤 🖤 Also, Sympathy Magic is *the song* of a novella I have on sub somewhere. 🕯🕷🙏

My translation of "Above the Sand, Under the Skin" by Uruguayan writer Ramiro Sanchiz is out today in @translunartl.bsky.social !!! What happens after a giant robot woman's body washes up on the beach by a village? Find out here -> translunartravelerslounge.com/2026/02/15/a... #SFinTranslation

I backed WHAT ELEGANT STARS, have you?

2025 was a year of trying again. I wrote a novel that might not be sold. I rewrote my old literary stories speculative, just to learn. I waited on news on SFF novel subs📘📉🔥 I wrote my first contemporary weird novella🕷️🤞and dreamed of a completely different Thing for 26. Anyway, here're my 2025 pubs 🏆

Sunday self promotion! Pre-order my latest novella today!

Alright. I've hit 40k on Newest Unasked-for Thing. The bones of the story are down. Now, we cross the wasteland. In the next days I will open the MS, scroll and stop at random beats, and just drop dialogue, asides and other world nuggets, until I see mirages of Sense and Theme.

Oh boy, this book (and series) has its haters, but today, just today, I am going to talk about it to its lovers (and readers) --- werewolf urban fantasy in Singapore!

Lil before-bed request to check out my fashion + space opera anthology!! Would be really grateful for folks to back it. We are 8 days away from wrrapping up and have $4k to go.

Rhysling Award nominations close on February 15th (with Nebula and Hugo noms closing soon after)! Here's a thread of all my poetry from 2025. 1) "The Mourning Robot" (in @uncannymagazine.bsky.social) - if you've ever wanted someone to cry for you after you died

Another collection of short stories, though the titular story accounts for over half of the book. Sci-fi horror themed, exploring potential horrors of space exploration and our own greed, hubris and anger. Well worth a read. #books #booksky

Just saying, LNY is when I simmer, boil over, and implode with rage against the internalised misogyny of my matriarchal elders, so if there's any good news out there, kindly come between 17th Feb and 3rd March please and thank you

Celebrating the one year birthday for OF SHADOWS, STARS, AND SABERS, our first release! Edited by @jendiagammon.bsky.social , @garethlpowell.bsky.social, and @scarlettralgee.bsky.social.

I'd love for people to consider "Blanquitos" in the short story category, but I mostly want everyone to read my story about old neighborhoods, childhood friends, and how nostalgia can be a boomerang www.typebarmagazine.com/blanquitos/

did you know there's a The Iron Garden Sutra audiobook that you can request on Netgalley? (i didn't until this morning 😅) do i dare listen? 👀

Finished reading this one today, and still recovering. An unsettling take on generational trauma like only @lyndseycroal.bsky.social can deliver 🌧️

The 2025 Locus Recommended Reading list is also really helpful for books as well as short fiction (and I contributed a ton of suggestions) 2/ locusmag.com/2026/02/2025...

It's mid-week before LNY. Time for my annual post of Gong Li's thousand yard stare into the chasm of traditional Dread. 🐉🥃🐎🍍

Not me reading in an email from @starsandsabers.bsky.social, that I'll be getting my first hardcover edition, for 🛠🍜"The Ah Huat Engineering Cookbook and Organizing Manual"🛠🍜! Deliciously giving space slum lords the middle finger, in Spring '27. More below on the property laws that inspired AHE

OH AND. This is still on.

More books with smaller dimensions for lower costs and more profit to authors and we’re not joking around

If there’s one thing I love, it’s having a yap! Can’t wait for folks to tune in!

My impostor syndrome, writer's block, and I, going to the back of my head to mine highly specific trauma that will make the following chapters make sense.

Fell while running on the rail corridor trail again and spent too long gingerly snipping torn skin off my palms, and hoping it won't affect my typing speed. I should just stick to swimming. Not intended for land coordination.

We would be hype if you consider supporting WHAT ELEGANT STARS at the Benefactor level to single-handedly make our stretch goals happen 🚀 (and also smash this initial goal) so grateful to already have one Benefactor on board! www.kickstarter.com/projects/dav...

My unsolicited writing advice is that if a Scene is eating you alive to be written, write it now. Doesn't matter that you don't know where it'll fit, or that it's probably Act 3 and you're still trudging in Act 1. Write the Scene. Find its roots and branches later.

For the evening crowd

My Dec '24 book CLUB CONTANGO fell in the gap between the awards, but you can still get a free copy of the story of Freeport's luckiest loser. Now until LNY 🍍🐎
