This was my first publication. It appeared in the anthology Seers and Sibyls, published by Brigids Gate Press. I remember my mom was so happy I included our tribe's rituals in the story.

I can't be the only one who sees it, right? Kash Patel was going for the Groucho Marx look.

R.I.P. Koji Suzuki, the author who created the absolute goddess of a villain Sadako. His novel The Ring was adapted into the most influential Japanese horror movie since Godzilla. #authors #horror #novels #booksky #movies #filmsky #film #horrormovies 📽️ www.pastemagazine.com/music/koji-s...

I want to point out how crazy Louisiana elections are right now. The gov cancelled the House primary with 48 hours notice, but Senate, state amendments, and local elections are still on. Yet when I try to see a sample ballot on the LA Sec. of State's website, this is what I get. #2026elections #vote

May 5th is Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) Day. When White women go missing, police and FBI look for them. This isn't the case for Native women who are 10x more likely to be murdered than White women. Wear red to bring awareness to our stolen sisters. #MMIW #MMIWday #NoMoreStolenSisters

Sharing this because my mom and my cousin both have lupus. And my great aunt and great grandmother both died from it. #LupusAwarenessMonth #LupusAwareness #Lupus #autoimmunedisease #autoimmunedisorder

This was my first short story ever. The characters Seth and Laura are named after my real lab partners in college. The story appeared in Cosmic Horror Monthly's October 2023 issue. You can read it here: cosmichorrormonthly.com/fiction/what... #sff #horror #scifi #sciencefiction #specfic #readsky

While this was not the outright comedy I expected it to be, the catharsis of watching soulless, rich people explode like popped balloons makes up for it. I look forward to seeing the sequel. #filmsky #films #movies #horror #film #ReadyorNot 📽️ #eattherich

A snip from my time travel novel that I'm currently querying. Unfortunately, my MC has to "deal" with a lot problems in both the past and the present in this story. #sff #scifi #timetravel #WIPsnips #specfic #sciencefiction #speculativefiction #writing #writingcommunity #writers #novels #amquerying

Praise Creator! My solar neutrino detector simulation is finally finished! I can turn it in to my professor and be done with this class. After working 15 hours per day on this thing, I don't ever want to program anything again, like not even set an alarm clock. #physics #coding #python #programing

Contrary to popular belief, not all women who write under their initials do so to hide that they are women. Some of us just really hate our first names. The only thing I like about my name is that I share it with the Antarctic Muon and Neutrino Detector Array. #writingcommunity #writers #writesky

I'm feeling nostalgic, so here are some photos from when I lived in Smíchov, a district of Prague. I lived there for about a month before moving to Braník.

Just watched this gem. I once lived in Prague while teaching English to Czech architects. I recognized the buildings and the streets, which made this movie really hit home. I teared up quite a few times. Very well done, heartbreaking film. #filmsky #truestory #historical #films #wwii #movies 📽️

Once Upon a Moonless Night, an all-ages #horror #anthology containing my story, "My Grandfather's Bow," is now out in hardcover, paperback, and ebook! brothersuber.com/products/com... #sff #specfic #speculativefiction #supernatural #youngadult #booksky #books #readsky #reading #writingcommunity

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.

I've read books that have taught me how to build nuclear bombs.* Swords ain't got nothing on that. *I'm a physics major. That's why I was reading such books. Don't call the FBI on me. Also, I'm against nukes. #booksky #books #sff #specfic #speculativefiction #fantasy #scifi #horror #sciencefiction

My contributor's copy of Once Upon a Moonless Night has arrived! It contains my first YA story, "My Grandfather's Bow," which draws heavily on my family and tribe. #sff #specfic #supernatural #horror #youngadult #ownvoices #shortstories #anthology #books #booksky #writingcommunity #readsky #reading

As a '90s baby, I only knew Chuck Norris from infomercials for exercise equipment. Had no idea he was 86, so I guess that equipment worked. (Also, I looked him up, and turns out he was a pretty big Islamophobe and homophobe. Not sorry I never watched his movies.)

A Choctaw teen steals his late grandfather’s hunting bow only for it to possess him and attack those who have wronged his family. "My Grandfather's Bow" in Once Upon a Moonless Night Out now: www.amazon.com/Once-Upon-Mo... #sff #horror #youngadult #ownvoices #booksky #reading #books #readsky

I've never cared about the Oscars before. But as someone who is Choctaw and Irish, whose family worked as sharecroppers in Mississippi and were subjected to segregation for being "Indian," I really want Sinners to win. #Oscars #filmsky #movies #horror #horrormovies #films 📽️

If I've been quiet lately, it's because this semester of class is kicking my ass. But I haven't been completely under a rock. I'm well aware our pedophile-in-chief started an illegal war with Iran that no one in America wants. We need recall elections for the POTUS. Why hasn't he been impeached?

The ebook version of Once Upon a Moonless Night, the anthology featuring my story, "My Grandfather's Bow," is now available for purchase on Amazon. Paperback version will be out next week. www.amazon.com/Once-Upon-Mo... #sff #specfic #speculativefiction #horror #youngadult #ownvoices #shortstories

Bluesky doesn't let you pin a non-quote repost, so I'm reposting this again. #AbolishICE

I really hate that the media focuses on one athlete and plays them up like all of the U.S.'s medal hopes are on them. They did the same thing to Simone Biles, and we saw what that pressure did to her mentally. Yet the media learned nothing from it. #olympics #winterolympics #2026olympics #TeamUSA

They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.

In case you didn't already know, AI is nothing more than IP theft. And the douchey tech bros who created it are nothing more than thieves. Stop pirating authors' work! www.msn.com/en-us/techno... #NoAI #writesky #writingcommunity #writers #authors #writing #AIisPlagiarism #AIisTheft

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.

I'm pleased to announce my short story, "We Told You of the One Who Lives in the Mound," is a nominee for the 2025 Brave New Weird Award from Tenebrous Press! tenebrouspress.com/blog/2026/1/... #horror #weirdfiction #SFF #speculativefiction #specfic #writesky #writingcommunity #reading #writing

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

I misread this popup as "Show when you're alive" and thought to myself, "Damn, it's only been 5 days since my last post, and you already think I'm dead?"

Native Americans are citizens of the United States. Although Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has no jurisdiction over citizens on immigration matters, ICE has targeted Tribal citizens and descendants. We've made two flyers to help individuals protect themselves: buff.ly/wyH57GY

Thanks to a recent sale, I just got bumped up from Affiliate to Active Pro member of the Horror Writers Association! 😱💀👻 #horror #writingcommunity #writers #writesky #writing

Can we all agree that the U.S. government is a scrap-and-redo at this point? How many times can it make the same fucking mistake? Another war. Another oil grab. Another invasion. Another regime change. Another puppet government installed. American imperialism must end. #Venezuela #Maduro #FDT

I got "inspiring." Hopefully, it's the good kind of inspiring and not "inspiring rage," which is what 2025 did for me.

My 2025 roundup isn't as impressive as others'. I only had one story published (a hazard of working full time while also going to school). "We Told You of the One Who Lives in the Mound" appeared on PseudoPod in July. pseudopod.org/2025/07/11/p... #sff #horror #fantasy #writing #writingcommunity

Another one added to my list of best #sff and #horror stories I've read this year: "The Waitress" by @brooklynannauthor.com #specfic #speculativefiction #shortstories #amreading #writingcommunity #writesky #writing #reading #scifi #sciencefiction #fantasy

These are photos I took in Josefov, a district of Prague that was historically a Jewish quarter. I once lived in Prague and spent a lot of time in Josefov. The alt text contains some info on these sites. More photos at www.almunson.com/photos/. #photography #photos #realphotos #NoAI

Translating your family's feedback on your #writing: "I like it." = "Other people will hate it." "It's good." = "It's mediocre at best." "It's very good." = "Other people *may* actually like it." "It's excellent!" = "It doesn't read like a complete amateur wrote it." #writingcommunity #writesky

Now we've lost Rob Reiner. This year has sucked, and I fear 2026 will be even worse. www.latimes.com/california/s...

No "control" in my cult #horror story, so I went with "enforce" instead. #sff #shortstories #WIPSnips #writingcommunity #writesky #amwriting #writing

Adding to my list of best #horror stories of the year: "The Body is a Cage Opened Only by Fire" and "Severed Blessings" by @jawmccarthy.bsky.social (Both soon to be released. I read them early through HWA Stoker Opt-Ins.) #sff #fantasy #speculativefiction #specfic #reading #amreading #shortstories

Is it worth reading The Lord of the Rings if I hated The Hobbit? Does the series significantly improve (i.e. not just a bunch of 2-D characters surrounding one character with depth)? That was far from my only complaint about The Hobbit, but it was the biggest. #fantasy #sff #reading

Continuing my list of best #sff stories of the year: "Autogas Ferryman" by @champwongs.bsky.social "25 Peppercorns" by @slashnburnett.bsky.social "Hard as a Mirror of Cast Bronze" & "If Time Travel Were Possible..." by @grigorylukin.bsky.social #specfic #scifi #sciencefiction #fantasy #reading
