Turned in the manuscript for my first acquisition—what a lovely experience! My eyes are joyously fried.
RED ANTS, a story collection by Kimberly Blaeser (White Earth Nation), publishes in October with Counterpoint Press. I'm so honored to be a part of this book's journey as its editor.

The entire Never Whistle at Night anthology absolutely rocks, but ‘Behind Colin’s Eyes’ by @shanehawk.com sat me straight down. A killer, close-perspective trip into the woods in a subtly desperate search for dinner gone way wrong.

I’d like to thank Dr. Krista Collier-Jarvis for inviting me to virtually visit her Indigenous Horror class today to talk Never Whistle at Night, horror in general, and craft. Read some of a new short story too. And it’s always fun to field lit analysis questions about your own work. Hohóú.

Both my 3rd Great-Grandfathers on my Native side were chiefs.
(Left)
Black Hawk (where we get the surname ‘Hawk’ from) was Xosh-gah band Hidatsa and second chief at Fort Buford alongside Chief Crow Flies High.
(Right)
Black Kettle was “peace” chief of the Wutapiu band of the Southern Cheyenne.

Joey Clift’s book is playfully subversive in the best way, and I can’t wait to see the finished copy with Diné artist Julie Fiveash’s amazing illustrations. Congrats to the both of you! I’m honored to have written its foreword :)
It’ll hit shelves October 6, 2026.

I’ve been sitting on this news for a minute, but I wrote a book! It’s called “We’ve Been Here The Whole Time!” and it’s a very unsacred humor / satire book about all things Native America. From me, @andrewsmcmeel.bsky.social and illustrator Julie Fiveash. Buy it when it comes out in October!

Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) just pointed out that ICE has a projected 2026 budget that includes $858 million earmarked for bonuses. That means every ICE thug will get an end-of-year bonus around $42,000 while the average American worker might see a $2,500 bonus.

How will the soulless politicians spin another civilian murder in Minnesota? He was armed? He was a terrorist? He maimed a government neonazi cog? Whatever it is, it’ll be another idiotic lie as if the non-MAGA folks will believe it.
Fuck ICE forever.

The 5-year-old arrested by ICE In Minnesota is detained at Dilley. We reported on conditions there in the below article.
Parents said the food was contaminated with mold and worms & that children were so under so much stress that they were hitting their own faces & wetting themselves.

Analysis by The Marshall Project of ICE data obtained by the Deportation Data Project found that the Trump administration’s revival of family detention has swept thousands of children into ICE custody. At least 3,800 children under 18, including 20 infants, have been booked since Trump took office.
ICE Threw Thousands of Kids in Detention, Many For Longer Than Court-Prescribed Limit
Former immigration staffers argue ICE is choosing to detain families for prolonged periods to speed deportations and compel them to leave.

Got two pretty substantial book project invitations back to back. I still carry that lingering question of why me? But I’m always grateful for the opportunities that come my way. I’m honestly charmed that other folks see my voice as a worthy complement to their projects.
Details when I can share.

If you’re late to the game like me, check out this 15min short film written & directed by @tai-leclaire.bsky.social that features @kaniehtiio.bsky.social too! It’s on HBO Max as the 6th episode of “Reframed: Next Gen Narratives.” A really cool Indigenous take on Mark Twain’s classic story.

Turned 35 today. Had a perfect dinner date with my wife.
5 years into my literary career, and I feel like I’m just warming up. Now I’m stepping into a new opportunity to keep paying it forward, amplifying even more Native voices, and making sure that rising tide lifts every boat.
