Thank you so much for reading and for sharing your kind words! I'm so glad you liked it!

Thanks @jamieboyd.bsky.social for your kind words and this really thoughtful comparison of these stories! My day to day work focuses on finding meaning, hope, and purpose in the face of the finite nature of life and that theme comes through in most of my stories. So glad you enjoyed it!

If you're a writer, I really hope that that story that you love but can't quite place will one day find the editor who'll love it too, and I hope your story finds its home.

This story had sat shelved on my hard drive for years and now it's out in the world and people are reading it, enjoying it, and even saying nice things about it! If I hadn't hauled it out for one last sub, it never would have seen the light of day.

Oh, thank you so much! I’m so glad you enjoyed it and really grateful for your kind words.

Oh my gosh! Thank you so much! This is making my morning. I’m so glad you enjoyed it. 😊

My story is about parenting in a climate crisis but it’s not about fear. Rather, it’s about hope. If you liked my story, there’s many more to enjoy over at Tractor Beam and if you haven’t read mine yet, well that’s there too! #tractorbeam #tractorbeamthegarden #soilpunk

Tractor Beam has been such a great home for this story, a new quarterly publication aiming to reimagine how humans and nature can find harmony through soil focused science fiction.

I'm blown away by Yue Li's gorgeous illustrations. As a writer, it's such an incredible privilege to have an artist create original illustrations for a story. Check out the words and pictures both at: www.tractorbeam.earth/story/in-eve...
