so excited to have a weird, kind of gross little story featured among so many other strange, haunting, queer gems in baffling. what an honor and a delight!

The Lady of Shallot is close to my heart and I am in love with Hannah’s depiction of her in all her carefully-woven misery - it was a delight writing the words to this piece.

It's March to Camelot prompt #3- Family My partner/tame writer is @knightsalvage.bsky.social The March to Camelot challenge is hosted by @mortiscausa.bsky.social

Galehaut and Lancelot is one of my favorite Arthurian stories - to love a man so much to give up your crown for the sake of being close to him! When Galehaut receives prophecy of his death if he doesn’t keep Lancelot close, he refuses to tell Lancelot for fear of putting obligation on him.

so excited for my story “echolocation” be featured in this anthology with work by so many other amazing authors! can’t wait until it’s out and I can read all the other solarpunk stories ☀️🐋

my story "obsolescence" is published in after the storm magazine! check it out if you are interested in solarpunk, robots, and overwhelming feelings of guilt for the person you could have been! 🌱🤖☀️
