Over the years, I've been fortunate to have some good conversations with great people. Seems like great time to share them. Let's start with Eileen Gunn and few words on SF. #quotable #notables #sciencefiction #speculativefiction

Survivors of 2025, I salute you. Best to you in the new year. (ai generated video)

A deep cut from my first collection, Starting Friction

Happy holidays

It's that time. Where we look back and forward, a liminal space as this year ends and a new one begins. For the rest of the year, you'll find me here. A bit of Frequencies, a Fiction Album to set the mood. What are your wishes? #liminalspace #newyear#newfrequency #speculativefiction #teneadjohnson

While getting ready to launch projects to make 2026 the light I need, that will hopefully shine for others, got this beauty in the mail. If you were going to judge a book by its cover this says, "Amazing." Given the excellent work within that wouldn't be wrong. #speculativefiction #afrofuturism

Lovely, lively discussion about art, connection, & clay at VICFA tonight with @teneajohnson.bsky.social, Katelyn Watson, & @maroon-stranger.bsky.social 🖤🖤🖤 Thank you for starting my weekend off with a drop of magic!

Pivoting to progress: Looking forward to this and enjoying/sharing/exploring poetry’s possibilities with a couple #portalpieces. Everything has power of you if wield it well. (note, #specfic folks, I will always be extrapolating)

This would apply to many things.

My friend from the NOAA lab that brings you the Keeling Curve wants that world to know that things are horrible inside NOAA.

What sullied record would you like to break?

Sen. Booker just quoted the Langston Hughes poem "Let America Be America Again" "America never was America to me, And yet I swear this oath— America will be!" poets.org/poem/let-ame...
