The big 50 looms! Saturday.

And the book of my writing path... is released into the wild.
1st March is next week!

Wolf's Path is a collection of my stories from the start of my writing path until now. I turn 50 this year.

The collection is unapologetically queer & trans & joyful and angry & painful.

TWO years ago we published @kashinggiwa.bsky.social's essay "Ceremony, Subjugation, Sacrifice, and Camellia sinensis" about the place of tea in science fiction.

You can read it here - also for free!

Ceremony, Subjugation, Sacrifice, and Camellia sinensis — Speculative Insight
Kemi Ashing-Giwa discusses the history of tea and its connection with imperialism and colonialism, and then connects that to the role of tea in her first novel.

Check out the thread and Dove's essays!
Oh. Right. I published essays last year. I should make a small list, shouldn't I? I think they're cool and informative pieces, anyway.

My personal feed will be:

horses, dragons, books, reading, embroidery, assorted editor thoughts.

If you don't like them, go away. Go far far far away.

Also muting my feed, because I am done with the performativity.

Perfect for Lunar New Year or just a cosy read, if you are a fan of dragons, recipes and Chinese court intrigue but seen through the eyes of young women.

💛WAXING WINTER💛

Around the lunar New Year guests are served 'rōbai' (蝋梅), named after the fragrant 'yellow wax plum' which blooms at this time of year.
As the name suggests, the beehive-yellow blossoms look as if they have been carefully crafted from wax.

Every day I look at the feed, every day I am reminded how stark social media is to offline real life.

Online, everyone is loud, angry, immensely cruel. Even for the progressives who talk so much about kindness - they are happy to be perceived as right(eous) and are happier to dunk on people.

I think this solarpunk/hopepunk arc is deeply personal for me - sea levels will/are going up where I live.

Apparently, I flow better with child-size/child-friendly/beginner dragons. :P
LOL, if someone can gift me a smaller dragon head (for dragon flow), I would be happy.

2025 was a year of trying again. I wrote a novel that might not be sold. I rewrote my old literary stories speculative, just to learn. I waited on news on SFF novel subs📘📉🔥 I wrote my first contemporary weird novella🕷️🤞and dreamed of a completely different Thing for 26. Anyway, here're my 2025 pubs 🏆
