Oh, this is a bewildering thing to learn about. It doesn't make up for it but two different professors asked me to recommend queer Caribbean writing and I included your work. 💜

Ah, I do always lose steam in the first half. Knowing it was done for a purpose later revealed is encouraging. 😅

Thank you, I need all the good vibes. 😅 I made it through Lathe of Heaven in audio which I liked well enough. Unfortunately, the narrator for Dispossessed, at least the copy the library has, sounded so robotic. Which, combined with the prose...sigh. Eyeballs it is.

Omg you're back! I've been worried about you. I hope you're doing okay and it was just a well-deserved break.
