It’s a huge honor to have two pieces in Orca Literary’s literary-speculative issue, and it’s as surreal as it is incredible to see me, as me, in a print mag for the first time. 😊 Huge thanks to everyone at Orca for seeing something in my work!
I’ve got a story in here that I really love, and I hope you’ll love it too. ❤ Side note: the editors at Vast Chasm are some of the kindest folks I’ve ever worked with in the community. Can’t thank them enough! 😊
Super stoked to see this go live! Here’s my post-literate experimental Afterglow thing where half the words are made up and the spelling doesn’t matter. Thanks be to Bullshit Lit for appreciating my bullshit! 🤘
I’m about to devour this volume, but first I want to thank Jiksun Cheung for his incredible editorial work. Such an honor to be among the names published in Volume 2 of The Bureau Dispatch. Here’s the Afterglow piece I’m most proud of, a story in three parts: “May You / Live In / Interesting Times.”
Super stoked to have a story in here! It’s a kind of anarchic one from Afterglow, a piece with Wyfy in it called “Smoke in the Atlas Fear.” Many thanks to Anna and Julia for giving this such a great home!
It’s been a while since I’ve had two stories go live in one day! Huge thanks to Nuke at AntipodeanSF for picking up “Seeking Sounds.” When I got into Afterglow, I was worried about whether it could cut the mustard at established SFF mags, so it feels amazing to have a piece here.
Man, it’s a dream to see my name under these skulls. 💀💀💀 Here’s a very short + true story about a very chaotic recent move. Huge thanks to Dina L. Relles for seeing something in this sentence.
Here’s a fun how it started / how it’s going. The first picture is Wyfy in 2013, in a book that collected rejections and went nowhere. The second picture is Wyfy in an excerpt from a new book that will see publication, in 2022. Thanks, Roi Fainéant Press, for giving this a home! Check out the full piece here!
Really excited to share this single-sentence CNF about enby-ness & Velvet Goldmine & self-love & the struggle that is being who you want to be. Huge thanks to Drunk Monkeys for picking this up. Recommend pairing this w/ 2HB (The Venus in Furs version).
