It’s the time of year when folks start posting lists of their stories and books from the past year that are eligible for award nominations, like the Nebulas, Hugos, and more. I’m including word count, because different awards require different word counts, and it’s easy for me to grab those so you don’t have to […]

It combines the military sci-fi theme of Bullet Points with a somewhat sweet story of […]

The former includes seven stories and one poem, several of which were previously published, along with essays about the history I altered […]

My novella Barren started life as a short story. The story version, which I started brainstorming in 2013, had a different sort of apocalypse in which only plants had stopped growing. My main character, Lemy, was a much younger woman in the story, having been born after the point when the sea levels rose, creating the […]

I had one new piece out in March, which was “Dead Planet,” a drabble in Drabbledark III from Shacklebound Books. This is the sixth of my pieces that Shacklebound has published, most of which had been drabbles, and it’s wonderful to have a publisher that accepts mostly that length!
