I’m reading Killers of the Flower Moon, and I’m thinking the Wild West would have been an irritating time to live because of all these dudes insisting on nicknaming everything and everyone.

It’s my birthday, and I’ve got an acceptance (at midnight) and a new story went online (are we writers doing straight self-promotion here?). Oh, and my wife’s making chocolate espresso cake. So far, being old’s pretty sweet.

Our open reading period will begin on September 1 and end on September 14. Please send us your best and your weirdest! Guidelines for how and what to submit are here: dorothyproject.com/about/

I have a new piece out at Pigeon Pages! It even won honorable mention in their short story contest! 🎉 pigeonpagesnyc.com/one-to-ten

I’ll be traveling across the country for this. Perhaps I’ll see someone there? (Also: yahooooooooo!!)

If you're interested in reading my book, I made a book trailer for it earlier this year. I even did the music 🥺 and was very proud youtu.be/04OE5YKyU1k?...

@havehashad.com is it gauche to announce I had a HAD prompt submission picked up somewhere?

My genre pieces are very genre-y. I’m wondering if I should plan to gather them in a separate collection (when I publish my first collection(s) in the next year or two? ) (🤞) 🧐🚀 Any thoughts?
