Thread of trans authors and their books!
Our home was in North Gaza, but war took everything.
Now my daughter fights a serious illness, and we can’t afford treatment.
🙏 She survived the war… please help her survive this illness.
🫶 Any donation, even small, can save her life. Please don’t leave my child alone💔

"The realist approach to reading—the passive admiration, standing at the outside and uttering a few exclamations at the mystery of literature—is inadequate for dealing with experimental works like Can Xue novels. Every reader must stand up and perform to enter the realm of experimental literature."
"Your question lumps my writing together with other writers of the eighties, which shows that you haven't entered deeply into Can Xue's works—you need to put more effort into reading!"
-one of many funny Can Xue quotes from this interview:
Text exceeds the character count on Bluesky. If you’d like to read the interview, please get in touch and I’ll send a copy.
My book, Like a Cat Loves a Bird: The Nine Lives of Muriel Spark, comes out a month today!
I had a chat with Booktime magazine all about it, as well as my love of independent bookshops like @urmstonbooks.bsky.social, @chorltonbookshop.bsky.social and @serenitybookshop.bsky.social 🐈⬛
Meanwhile, if you're on Storygraph, come be my friend...

Just like the Keebler elves. They hid a lot of pain behind those smiles.
Ever since those Taco Bell commericials of yore, I've never failed to say "think outside the bun" instead of "box." It's what we meant all along.
It’s almost time for Peppermint Patty summer. I have the sandals, but I need the stiff sideways bangs.
Did you know you can preorder my book?
You should go preorder my book.
"An intimate year-in-poems capturing the joy and dread of getting older, growing a family, the world’s news … and the miracles—no bigger than a child’s hand—that keep us going."

My poem "Two Quarters Less a Penny" is live on Rogue Agent. It's a birthday poem, so about getting older. Whee! www.rogueagentjournal.com/akozma-2
