Hey! It's midnight on the east coast, so it's release day. Thanks to @undertow.bsky.social for being such a fantastic publisher. Thanks to family, friends, and fellow writers for their support. The short fic grind has ups and downs, but it's a blast. Fricken love what we do. Thanks for reading.

Thanks, Eryn. The happiest of New Years to you and everyone else on the chat.
I was grateful for this lovely call-out for my novella Phengaris. Now would be a good time to read it, because the story starts in the first melancholy days of January

The 6 books I loved best this year, in order of reading.
Now we're deep in autumn -
Phengaris by @anna-orridge.bsky.social
A brilliant cosmic horror novel. Stunning writing and vividly unnerving.
