Update: The Patch Project Omnibus will remain an ebook exclusive for now. Rising printing and shipping costs plus a formatting issue have dissuaded me from green-lighting the paperback. Still, I'm ecstatic that the trilogy is available as a collection!

Lately, Wednesday evenings are the best because my spouse & I eat comfort food and are treated to new episodes of Fallout and D20 Gladlands, which I just realised are two very different post-apocalyptic takes, proving that genre isn't restrictive, it provides expectations that are fun to overturn!

Text reads:
ANNOUNCING AUGUR SOCIETY'S FIRST NOVELLA
CREST by A.D. Sui
After more than a decade no-contact, two former friends keep their promise from undergrad and meet up to hike the Pacific Crest Trail together.
But urban legends haunt the trails; secrets hang between them; and an eerie otherside pulls at them both, threatening to keep them from ever going home.
CREST weaves a story about complex friendships, love, and regret, told as an atmospheric contemporary fantasy travelogue by the Nebula-winning author of The Dragonfly Gambit (Neon Hemlock).
Coming Fall 2027

Once a month, a few of us make 30-second films to share. This is why I'm cutting up voice clips my husband sent me to make a found poem of existential dread to backdrop otherwise benign cafe footage. I live for this shit.
