I had a couple of new drabbles out in September, both from Reach Your Apex! The first was “Aurora Dolofonos,” in which the appearance of the aurora comes with something a bit more sinister. The second was “Anti-Icarus,” in which a promising invention doesn’t account for a key factor!

I had one new piece out in May, which was a drabble for the Reach Your Apex community drabbles! My story was “Tower Twister,” which is a drabble about towers around the world being relocated. It’s an incredibly quick read, and there are several other drabbles on the theme of “extraction” alongside of mine!

I had one new piece out in April 2025. My poem “Adaptable” appeared in issue 56 of Eye to the Telescope. This poem is from the perspective of a bit of dandelion fluff in space, with a refrain of “I don’t belong here.” The fun of the refrain is that by emphasizing any single word in […]
