ICYMI I finally dove back into my newsletter, in which I talk about my novella's birthday, @psychopomp.com awesomeness, and some most excellent short fiction recommendations.

Cyberpunk love... ♥️

Obsessed.

Speaking of @canconsffh.bsky.social , last year's starter pack for panelists, vendors and volunteeers was popular, so I made a new one for this year. Please tell me if you're on programming or helping out with Can*Con this year and would like to be added, or if you'd like to be removed.

ICYMI. Reading tonight at 9PM EST!

Oh.... Hey! I have a story in this! 🥰 Thanks so much to @takahemagazine.bsky.social for taking such great care of my work. ❤️

HERE WE GOOOOO! I'm unbelievably excited to bring you such a wildly ambitious craft book; each month for the last *year* I wrote a story collaboratively with an amazing writer, accompanied by a non-fiction piece about how and why we wrote what we did. It's both a tremendous collection of fiction &

I enjoyed this essay on femininity in Chungking Express by @melisfluous.bsky.social, including her apt take on what's going on with Wong Kar-wai films in general.

Excellent article by @melisfluous.bsky.social on one of the best movies ever made: hi-femme.com/to-lead-with...
