Friends!

I'm Naz and I write horror/spec/literary fic often emphasizing diaspora & Armenian characters.

36 stories published with more slated at Deadlands, Pleiades, Crow & Cross Keys, a TBA anthology, & elsewhere.

Working on my debut novel!

Would you please share and help me find the folks?
On his last day of winter break, did I show my son Fellowship of the Ring?

Yes.

Was it the Extended Edition?

Also yes.

I’ve been sending stories to @fantasymagazine.bsky.social for years and today is the day I finally have a story out with them!

Wicked proud of this little post apocalyptic haunted highway tale :)

Revising my novel and this song just hit. Fuck, man, it is so achingly gorgeous, so eerie and sad, heavy from beginning to end.

Getting physical copies of my writing never, ever gets old. So thankful “Give Me Wings” took flight in MONSTROUS ANGELS, edited by @arwyns.bsky.social. Order your copy and meet Arlo Pearson, that filmmaker who went to Armenia in search of a musical monk but found instead a murderous mystery.

I have no idea if these award eligibility posts actually DO anything other than lay bare the good and silly work I've been lucky to achieve in 2025. 11 short stories published (on top of finishing my first novel)! I'm very grateful to all the editors and publications who've given my words a go!

Yet another BEST OF for SILK & SINEW! Not only is a treat to be included among so fine a roster of writers, but to again be lauded amongst today’s best horror authors… well, bless my soul! Major congrats to @garnetonwinter.bsky.social and @badhandbooks.bsky.social for all the solid buttkicking.

Novel update!

First round readers have returned and I'm very pleased to say the book has really solid reviews. Does what I need it to do! The notes were pretty universal across all the readers, and so I can see the road ahead without much obstruction.

Excited to beef up this (these) bad boy(s).

I’m reading a Beatles book in the living room, specifically a sentence about Stu Sutcliffe, when my son from his bedroom shouts, “Did Stuart Sutcliffe die?”

Turn outs he’s reading his Little Golden Book on The Beatles.

Fab!

He has my interests but thank God he has his mom’s personality.

I’ve been feeling crappy about not writing these past several weeks, but it dawned on me… I wasn’t writing this time last year either. Didn’t pick it up again till late January.

Then I wrote a novel.

Is this just hibernation? Anyone else feeling so?

My first novel has just had its first reader! This person finished it a couple nights ago and broke my heart with their rave reviews! What a relief. I’m hopeful, some soon day, all of you will read it too and feel the same.
