Unfortunately small presses close all the time, and their baby bird books need to find a new nest. My fledgling sun-vampire queer cannibal novella, SUNBATHERS, now needs a new home, as does my sapphic pirate novella QUEEN O'NINE TAILS.
If you know a toothy little home for either, please hit me up!

Uttech is facing what other residents in his town -- and others around the country -- are facing more and more: the risk of losing parts of his land to eminent domain, ... in support of the growing expansion of AI data centers as the demand to power them continues to grow.

never forget that Heated Rivalry was made in part thanks to government arts grants.
I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.
And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

I’m constantly astounded at the sheer level of artistic production coming out of Iceland. Novels, movies, music. Amazing.

Fun idea for school librarians. For the past couple years I've offered book bundles over winter, spring, & summer break for students and faculty/staff. They fill out a quick, easy Reader's Advisory form & I pull 3 books for them. I check out to their accounts then wrap the books and hand deliver. 1/
