I’ve been remiss in updating this blog. Too many demands on my time, too little focus to go around. But now that Elon Musk is busy remaking Twitter into a somehow-even-worse product, I’ll be working to keep this space much more active going forward.
The Necessity of Trans Joy
Thanks to Uncanny for giving me the chance to write about trans joy and how much I crave seeing it depicted in fiction. Thanks in particular to Meg Elison, who edited the piece and and without whose support and insightful feedback it would never have existed. And thanks to the trans community, without whom I’d surely have given up on this whole writing thing.
World Fantasy 2022
I’ll be at World Fantasy this weekend. If you’re there, I hope you’ll say hi! And please don’t be offended if I have to glance at your nametag to be sure of who you are. I wasn’t good with faces even in the Before Times. You can find me at the following events:
Thursday, 3 PM: Queer in the Market: The State Of LGBTQ+ Representation in Fantasy and Horror Publishing (Location: Celestin ABC)
Friday, 4:30 PM: I’ll be reading from All the Hometowns You Can’t Stay Away From. (Imperial 11)
I hope yo see you there!
Speaking of My Book
All the Hometowns You Can’t Stay Away From, my debut short story collection, which Elly Bangs praised as “gorgeously-told queer tales of grief and love, fear and wonder,” is out in the world! You can buy it through Neon Hemlock, order it through your local independent book store, or ask your local library to get a copy!
“The Futures Are Queer”
If you’ve read this far, I can pretty much guarantee that you’ll like my newsletter. In it I talk about writing, media, food, TTRPGs, and whatever else crosses my mind.
