This poem by Andrea Gibson perfectly encapsulates the feeling I get when people say "hey, why don't you have more confidence?"

Hey y’all, if you haven’t picked up a copy of @vanessafogg.bsky.social‘s debut collection, you are missing out on some of the most beautiful worlds I’ve ever read (I seriously wanted to live in some of these places).

NY Times used to be my go-to for news, but I can’t even open it these days without getting wtf vibes from their headlines. Saw this one on election day when so many other places were exalting the city's highest voter turnout in 50+ years.

Seems like a good time to bring out this old unhinged Fujimoto anecdote too.
November 7, 2025 at 5:36 AM
Tatsuki Fujimoto on the importance of setting goals as artists (go watch the new Chainsaw Man movie--it's funny and bloody and surprisingly poignant).

Unreal to hold a book with a story of mine translated into different language. Absolute dream come true 😭

Gorgeous day to vote and send Cuomo to Florida.

Jokes aside, there are several important charter amendments on the ballot this year regarding affordable housing, infrastructure modernization, and voter turnout.

Get more info here + vote on a better NYC: voterguide.abundanceny.org/charter-amen...

"the pumpkins say: I want to die.

They are like humans.
They rot from the inside out."

Happy Halloween, guys 💀

This was a wild ride.

I didn’t love a lot of the characterizations, but man, things got really crazy by the middle (complimentary) and I couldn’t put it down.

Got a cool book in the mail! Huge thanks to @omgjulia.bsky.social for putting together this wonderful collection of spec poetry to commemorate the inaugural Hugo Award in poetry this year. Honored to have two poems in here, including “High School Graduation, June 2099” (w/ my reimagination of prom)

The text on the original 1982 book cover of The Running Man hitting hard in 2025.

Got my own golden ball from Dandadan

This review for Goodnight Moon is a fucking masterpiece.

The ads are everywhere here (with only cryptic messaging like "I'll ride the subway with you"), so I looked it up. I was not expecting something this depressing and pointless.

At the Brooklyn Book Festival and hey, there’s a picture book about our next mayor.

Got my Nebula Award Showcase copies in the mail! Still so grateful to everyone who read “Imagine: Purple-Haired Girl Shooting Down The Moon.” I think that was the first time I ever felt like maybe I could make it as a writer (and even if I couldn’t, I still wanted to keep trying)

Richard Siken, speaking on poetry better than I ever could. His collection, Crush, was life-changing.

Watched Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle and man, all I can say is, go watch it in IMAX. What a gorgeous film.

Spent the past few days at Anime NYC and really appreciated the con’s strict no gen-AI artwork policy for their artist alley.

Always a joy to meet some of my favorite artists and buy some new prints for my workspace.

Ahh~ I picked up an early copy of @vanessafogg.bsky.social’s new short story collection, The House of Illusionists, at @interstellarflight.bsky.social’s table at Worldcon! Such a gorgeous book 👀
August 15, 2025 at 6:46 PM
I’ll be at my first Worldcon this year!

Here’s my schedule (lots of poetry, East Asian speculative fic, and my first live reading!). Would love to see you 👋
