Back to the day job today. This was my 8th surgery in 5 years. I feel like it takes me a little longer each time to bounce back.

Exciting news! My novel Plague Birds, which was a finalist for the Nebula & Philip K. Dick Awards, will be rereleased by Apex Books @apexmag.bsky.social in an new edition with extra content in June 2026. And a sequel will be published by Apex in Oct. 2026. 1/ www.apexbookcompany.com/products/pla...

Don't forget! We're currently running a Kickstarter to fund Apex in 2026. If you want to see more from Apex in the years to come, consider backing us today! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ape...

Finished reading Jason Pargin’s I’m Starting to worry About This Black Box of Doom. The book showcases the author’s best talents: creating fun characters and having those characters go on lengthy rants. Solid read. Would recommend.

"'And I love you very much.' She’d signed it so many times before. I never suspected she was lying." 🌬️🤟 New fiction today by Anita Moskát and Austin Wagner: "Liecraft" Read it here: www.apexbookcompany.com/a/blog/apex-...

Am on day 3 of recovering from my latest surgery. I expect to be at full strength by Wednesday.
