Oh no. I think I’ve started writing a novel. Sorry to my three followers in advance for all the complaining about it I’m going to do on this app

He really could have dismissed all the student debt, erased all the records and been a legend.

Just saw that Boston might get between 13-16 inches of snow on Sunday, rolled my eyes and got back into bed.

Fennel update 🥺

Got a new kitty. His name is Fennel. I would share a pic, but so far he is mostly hiding. Really hoping he and the first kitty get along. Anyway he is already so baby.

GOOD NEWS. My novel--a retelling of Hansel & Gretel in which the parents are addicted to opioids--originally titled Abandon & now titled A THOUSAND WAYS TO DISAPPEAR, will be published by Cornerstone Press (Univ. of Wisconsin) in February 2028.

Just now feeling normal after almost 24 hours of a stomach bug, so I will be lying on the couch for the foreseeable future reading this one by @leahhampton.bsky.social

This week, we have a briefing on Immigration and quick updates from our Data Security, Federal Workforce, and Medical Research Funding teams: unbreaking.org/blog/this-we...

I may or may not have a short story featuring this setting coming out this year from a dream pub 🤭 Centralia is sick as hell

I’m reading THE SENTENCE by Louise Erdrich, a book club pick that I (of course) had no idea would be so pertinent several weeks after it was selected. Very upsetting how circular time is. “Minnesota goddamn” ❤️‍🩹

“i want back my rocking chairs, / solipsist sunsets, / & coastal jungle sounds...” A poem by Renee Nicole Good, who was murdered by ICE earlier today. lithub.com/renee-nicole...

I found out yesterday that I was awarded a 2026 artist grant from the Somerville Arts Council! I will use the funding to work on my short story collection, but I also plan on creating a community project. If anyone is in the #Boston area, what type of writing activity would you be interested in?

Electric Lit Social Media Editor Jalen Giovanni Jones (@jalengjones.bsky.social) speaks with “Hamnet” author Maggie O’Farrell about translating her heartbreaking narrative from the page to the screen.

Idk if we still do wrap-ups over here, but here’s what I published in 2025! To start off, a poem in @garlicpresslit.bsky.social called “Illium”: www.garlicpresslit.com/issues/issue...

You need to read this story.

For the morning crowd, I have a new short story out! This one is very important to me. I’m very grateful for the editors at Blue Mesa Review for publishing it. 🫱🏻🔪🐚🐉

I have a new short story out today in Blue Mesa Review. It’s a retelling of the “One-Handed Murderer.” Although this folktale was written a long time ago, we are still writing about the same shit. But I hope we can change how we tell the story. I’d so appreciate it if you’d take the time to read:

“‘Everything will be alright,’ Lena told the egg baby. She considered what other reassurances a mother might offer her child, and gave these all to the egg though not one of them felt true.” A wonderfully weird and unsettlingly pertinent story, @ellenrhudy.bsky.social!

when we drive in your car i’m your baby because i can’t drive can’t navigate couldn’t tell you what a car is or will be

“‘Because of ‘Wicked’s’ success but also the fanship, we have almost a responsibility to figure out how we can continue in this universe,’ Moses said.” No. You. Literally. Don’t!!!!!

I’ve lived in many places, and nothing tops horrendous traffic like Connecticut —> Massachusetts. We were supposed to get home in 4.5 hours and now our whole trip will be 8 hours. Jfc

@natmiller.bsky.social and I had Musical Fridays, where every Friday we would order takeout and watch a bootleg of a musical

This story is so beautiful @anniejowrites.bsky.social

A lot of ppl have said that it was unnecessary to have Wicked be in two parts. I used to think the same, but since re-seeing the Broadway musical, and now seeing Wicked: For Good for the first time, I highly disagree 🧵1/6

Employer: What can we give you this holiday season as a thank you for all the hard work you’ve done this year? Employees: Ooo a bonus, a raise, more time off— Employer: OKAY SELF-CARE TIPS IT IS!

New story day! My twisted fairy tale, “Head of the Household,” is in the winter issue of F(r)iction. Koschei the Deathless, Slavic folklore’s baddest bad, has met his match in Ira: a mortal woman with a clever plan to take him down. At stake? Ira’s best friend’s freedom. Warning: contains gluten 🥖🩸

“I feel– […] Like I’m waiting, she says and seems surprised with herself. Like the Dinah’s tears, and I am glad of it. She smiles. I am glad. We inhale the air together, and my gills stretch with the taste of water.” Loved this story, @lmanusos.bsky.social!

Is it just me or is it required that every ride share driver must dowse their car in the WORST perfume/cologne??

Guys, let’s keep James Bond. Let’s keep Marvel. Let’s keep Jurassic World. Give the straight normies something. Please. They need it.

I’m late to the game, but I’m reading A SWIM IN A POND IN THE RAIN for a book club, and this may be the best craft book I’ve ever read. Funny, approachable, and actually makes you feel like George Saunders loves to write. Hell, I might even end up reading more Russian literature after this!

Well this is a very normal and cool thing for a TV network to do

ICYMI: I have a new short story published in Villain Era Lit! It’s about the Hex Hollow murders, a real set of murders that took place in the 1920s in central PA. Read here: villaineralit.com/2025/10/31/t...

It’s me! Thanks, @villaineralit.bsky.social!

I never thought I’d write historical fiction, but give me a witch in central PA and I won’t be able to resist. Check out my new short story over at @villaineralit.bsky.social. It’s based on a true story and it’s spooky and vengeful. Happy Halloween 👻
