It's Straith's awards eligibility post for 2025!!
I'm putting forward two of the three stories I had published this year for your consideration. I'd love especially if you'd consider "Fishwife" for the Aurora Award for Short Fiction, since it's my mémère story 💜

Which means they rotate teams to new cities without relief.
Which means consistent resistance by fresh activists in each new city will break them over time.

![What:
An addition ~10,000 words
2 additional intimate scenes (including a lesbian threesome)
Better Death Scene for [Spoiler]
More Clues as to what is happening in the next book!
He/Him Lesbian is more obviously a He/Him Lesbian (literally if you do not get it this time, that’s on you.)
Lesbian Polycule is more obvious (seriously, see above)
Why:
I’m an indie author, I do what I want
Writing Book #3 (Shackles and Shards) made me realize I forgot some things in Book 2 (Smoke and Steel)
I got tired of people misgendering Arishaki as a straight man when he’s a he/him lesbian.
Despite being known to write polyamorous lesbians, I guess my brand was not enough and I needed to fix that.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:7ajo5wrxtzruen5kyrezq4ro/bafkreifghbpufun3wklj2ubm4p3fbgpqetftyoiac7dahl4w6giyahiwsu@jpeg)
