already looking forward to #AWP in Chicago! anyone looking for panelists or readers, I'll be there ⚡️🦇

Guys, “The Mourning Robot” won 2nd place in the Rhysling Awards! Huge thanks to all the readers and @uncannymagazine.bsky.social for giving this one a home. This poem (+ spec poetry in general) has taken me to so many places this year (nebulas! hugos! my first pub in China!), and I am so grateful.

Okay, ya'll. The Apex Magazine Kickstarter still needs another $8,637 to fund 2027 and we only have 10 days to go. I'm starting to get STRESSED! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ape...

was a great time:

All the more reason to ask booksellers at your local indie what they’ve been reading lately.

spoiler? I saw YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING last night in DC w/ @hayliebswenson.bsky.social and, of all the things still rattling around in my head about it, I cannot shake the absurdity of Holmes randomly reading the opening chapter of her WIP for a bunch of A24 execs

This is violence Remember that when people fight back

FLASH FROGTOBER👻🐸 “Show and Tell” by @claudiamonpere.bsky.social is now up! Art by @jaredvarnado.bsky.social flash-frog.com/2026/10/19/s...

Watching this in a packed DC theater (which also lost its collective shit) truly healed something in me

I just want it on the record that I’ve been a huge fan of Amanda Seyfried this whole time

ACCOMPLISHMENT SUNDAY is a workshop kinda day ✨ Contributor @kcmeadbrewer.com is teaching a zoom workshop on adding horror elements to stories, regardless of genre🔥 This October 30th at 7pm EST, hosted by @smokelong.bsky.social. So get your ticket now: buff.ly/I9AA827

Every movie, song, and book that you love was made without the technology that people who don’t make art are now insisting is necessary for making art.

Thanks for the shout out, Split Lip!

Be there or be square, my creepy friends! 🦇⚡️ @smokelong.bsky.social

This will be great! Sign up for a workshop with @kcmeadbrewer.com !

The U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments Wednesday in a privacy case rooted in the era of VHS tapes, but with major implications for privacy in the digital age.

The federal investigation into Rep. Ilhan Omar aims to build a case to strip her of her U.S. citizenship and ultimately deport her, according to U.S. officials and others familiar with the probe on.wsj.com/4zBOcZ9

Be there or be square, my creepy friends! 🦇⚡️ @smokelong.bsky.social

The Trump administration continues to use the deportation machine to attack political opponents, this time sending ICE agents to search Representative Ilhan Omar's home. Add your name to our petition and demand that these blatant abuses of power end immediately.

At the airport after 10 days in Albuquerque, waiting for my bags, and there are ads for weapons of war above the carousel. I do love DC in general but man it was good to get a break from this bullshit and it’s hard to come back to

One thing that’s difficult to explain to people who don’t live in DC, and are inclined to think we’re maybe being a touch hysterical, is how much this administration hates our city, is actively trying to ruin it, and wants to make every single person living in it as miserable as possible.

this is my new favorite thing

man, #Baltimore is just looking GORGEOUS today
