I have a handful of new urban or contemporary fantasy pieces out since my last post about that genre! My poem, “Bad Luck for the Fates,” which appeared in Asimov’s in April 2024, has a somewhat mythological basis in the Fates, but the setting is decidedly contemporary. There are a couple of contemporary fantasy pieces hiding […]

I had two new pieces out in November this year: a flash fiction story and a poem. My flash fiction piece was “We Dream in Color,” a post-apocalyptic story with queer characters, in Toad Shade Zine. This one came out of a one-hour flash fiction writing challenge and was inspired by an image of a […]

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

I had three pieces come out in December, all on the shorter side of things! The Utopia Science Fiction 5th Anniversary Anthology included a reprint of my story, “Senchado in Microgravity,” which Utopia published originally back in April 2020. This story, about family, grief, and tea, has also been podcast and included in one of my collections, […]

A handful of the stories are also themed around cooking and food, and others around family, though not all share […]

I reviewed one of the stories from Robotic Ambitions, edited by Lesley Conner and Jason Sizemore (Apex Book Company, 2023), prior to the Kickstarter for the project. Now I’m back with a review of the whole anthology, filled with stories of mechanical sentience. In addition to Elliot Wink’s “A Still Life,” this anthology collected many […]
