Honored that my short story "Postictal State" is one of ten winners of The Masters Review Best Emerging Writers 2024 Anthology! mastersreview.com/postictal-st...

I'm supposed to be at Sweet Briar College, where I was so excited to meet with the amazing students, faculty, and staff who organized my visit & made Mobility their Common Read. Hours before my flight I learned about their Board's exclusion of trans & nonbinary people. So now I'm not going.

Sorry I have to cancel our plans today I only have 24 hours left to try to win my local library's winter book bingo reading challenge

The tough thing about the job of parenting is the lack of commute. One second I’m dead asleep, the next second I’m playing firemen and I need to put out the fire, no over there, no YOU’RE DOING IT WRONG

Is it just winter / or is this worse. / —Kay Ryan

Hey, what's up, writer friends? Let us know if you're here, and we'll be happy to follow!

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.

Yes, libraries are invaluable for their collections and public services they offer, but also social contact without the expectation to interact with anyone or spend any money is so important to so many people

HI I'M GOING TO DO SOME IMPORTANT SKEETS NOW and ask you for some help. As you know if you know or follow me at all anywhere, internet harassment is an important issue for me.

I am now tells-baristas-omg-I-wore-that-exact-outfit-twenty-years-ago years old.

This anthology is gorgeous - so proud to be in it fracturedlit.com/protocol-for...

Amazing western medicine/fairytale mashups from Margaret Adams!! "Cinderella at the Podiatrist She comes in wearing a pair of glass heels so high and pointed, they’re obscene. Eases them off and even I, a professional, have a hard time not recoiling..." https://www.havehashad.com/s8zy1

Two new flash fictions up at HAD today, "Cinderella at the Podiatrist" and "Rapunzel Gets Referred to the Endocrinologist"! Come for the promise of levity, stay for the sweet patina of cynicism: www.havehashad.com/hadposts/fai... @havehashad.com
