New CNF (my first!) is out now at @paranoidxtree.bsky.social 🛍️

I wrote it almost exactly a month before I quit this job and didn't think I would ever send it out. Grateful to the editors for picking this up and Ruth Baccam for grasping the crux of this story when they created the accompanying art 💞
