A book cover with the title “Children of Owl” and a girl looking up at a mountain with an owl boy prominent in the background.
CHILDREN OF OWL HAS A COVER!!!! With art by Abigail Rajunov, who also illustrated 25 pages of comics in the book. It was an honor to work with her; I couldn’t be happier!! 🥹💕
15 asexual and aromantic paranormal stories have been put together for this anthology.
We wanna bring it to life and for that we need your help!
If you like cryptids, demons, werewolves, ghosts and so much more, you know what to do 🌎📚💙
Abolish the legal gender marker entirely. No government can be trusted to have a database of which people have changed theirs, no government has any business tracking what your gender is "supposed" to be in the first place.
My new Strange Horizons essay is up! With a deliberately provocative title!
WHY ALL SCIENCE FICTION AND FANTASY WRITERS ARE HISTORIANS
Yes, *all*
And, no, it isn't just for the reason you think...
I've been working toward this one for a while, very excited to share it!
I wrote a novella called Death Valley Blooms about an aro/ace woman trying to break her family's curse--each of the women are pulled underground in Death Valley to feed the wildflower blooms in turn.

None of us living down our stereotypes lol

Oooh first sighting of the paperback!
This Aro Week I think we should celebrate by giving me, a known aro, money (I am applying for conference travel grants)
banging out the lamest cover letter in the world. happy Aro Week
nooooooooo :(
Hey everyone!
Huge news! Our trans girl scout list has sold a total of 146,000 boxes as of today!
But MANY trans girl scouts only have 20, 30, 40 boxes sold.
I just resorted our list to put those on the top.
Go get your girl scout cookies and make a trans kid's day!
If you're reading this and thinking, "I haven't read any," now's the perfect moment to start!
If you're looking for an incomplete list of authors, I wrote an article in 2024 on the subject: thetransfemininereview.com/2024/10/09/b...
Thanks! Trying to get out there more with submissions and tries
also I submitted a pitch to Duck Prints Press's Aces in Space anthology, so here's hoping!
because the real secret of the "ace robot or alien" stereotype is that robots and aliens are in reality never actually allowed to be ace or aro, they are always shown to be Truly Human Deep Down by falling in love and wanting sex after all. enough of all that. ace robots and aliens 4ever
also I love robots who are asexual. WHY would a robot be interested in sex. new sci-fi rule: you are only allowed to make your robot allo if you can come up with a very good answer to that question. ace robots 4ever
The Vanished Birds was genuinely the best book of the year For Real (on your list, which, yessss, it was so underappreciated!)
I love fanfic but I do want to do more original fiction writing. I have a lot of stories I want to explore
My goal for 2026 is to for real finish a complete draft of Ice Age Story.
Also my dissertation of course
But I keep daydreaming about my story about humans and Neanderthals in the snow 30,000 years ago.

Reminder for folks:
In the UK, LGBTQ+ History Month is in February and Black History Month is in October.
In a lot of other places (including the US and Canada), Black History Month is in February and LGBTQ+ History Month is in October.
This is why you'll see folks posting about both today.
gotta give it to the post's cover game, like obviously it's anti but they also know half of brooklyn is getting this framed
Trans rights is a winning platform. Pro immigration is a winning platform. Taxing the rich is a winning platform. Affordable housing is a winning platform. Free childcare is a winning platform. Hating Andrew Cuomo is a winning platform. SOCIALISM IS A WINNING PLATFORM
I'm so heartened. (also: I helped! I voted for my city's council elections! and the Dems swept on policies of free public transit, environmental protections, housing justice, reducing road speeds, renewable energy... all things we need at every level!)
