Our general submission window will open on the first of the month! We want stories and poetry with a strong voice and a sense of adventure, stuff that makes us feel things, stuff that lets us use our hearts and our brains and leaves us wanting more! Guidelines & schedule: www.havenspec.com/submit/

Contract signed, so I can officially announce that my very Upstate poem “Natty Bumppo Bums a Smoke Outside the Stewart’s Shop” will be published in the Fall 2026 issue of @trollbreathmag.bsky.social!

Hello readers! I have two electronic copies of Repetition to #giveaway I'm not requesting reviews. I simply want to find readers who enjoy #ghost stories. If you like #horror stories and would like a #free book, drop a line! geni.us/repetition

Two ghosts. One curse. The newest resident at 919 Victor Street makes an unsettling discovery—the previous women who’ve lived at 919 Victor Street have a bloody history of dying prematurely. And history seems keen on repeating itself. 🩸 💀🖤 geni.us/repetition

My chapbook OUR PLACE IS IN BETWEEN is now available from Bottlecap Press. The pieces explore marginal life and have magical or fantastical elements. They're sad but I hope you enjoy them. #booksky #fiction #bottlecappress bottlecap.press/products/ourpsd

I offered to give one of my coworkers a free copy of my book, and they refused. Because they want to purchase a hard copy for me to sign. I work with some really amazing people, y'all 🥺

11 horror movies to get to know me: 1. An American Werewolf in London 2. Descent 3. Dolls 4. Hellraiser, '87 5. Pontypool 6. Ready or Not 7. Severance 8. Stir of Echoes 9. Trick 'r Treat 10. Waxwork 11. Wishmaster *because I prefer odd numbers 🙃

Y'all, Repetition is finally here and I still can't believe it! I penned the first draft over 20 years ago (back when I thought I knew how to write), and I never imagined the journey would be so long. I'm eternally grateful to the team at Dead Fox for believing in this #hauntedhouse with #heart

Hi #QueerWritersChat! My debut full length poetry collection, Time Travel Is Easy, is a rumination on Deep Time, queerness, dinosaurs, and life here at the end of the Anthropocene. It’s available on Am*zon and Itch, with more options to come. Links on my site: mimulus.weebly.com/books.html

Never used it. 😁

I have my ideas in my head, and for research I use real sources.

Time Travel Is Easy, my full length collection of Deep Time poetry, processing queer embodiment in the Late Anthropocene (with dinosaurs), is now available on Itch! dinoholler.itch.io/time-travel-...

I'm celebrating Christmas Eve by submitting my first poetry manuscript into the publishing world. Fingers crossed. Happy holidays, everyone!

This has been a strange year in the writing world with the majority of acceptances happening at the start & end, bookending a TON of rejections. (My acceptance rate for 2025 just jumped to 4% 😅.) Last night, I experienced a rarity: two poems accepted by a journal! More details forthcoming 😸

Due to various circumstances, I have regretfully decided not to proceed with publishing "Repetition" through Graveside Press. However... Good news is in the wind!
