Convincing you to read my novel with the first sentence. Share yours if you want.

OK sure, it's a novella, but perhaps you would like to see the opening for THE DROWNED MAN'S DAUGHTER? bookshop.org/p/books/the-...

When @sfwa.bsky.social gave me this year's service award, I did not realize it was an actual... physical award? We have defeated the shipping goblins and now look how nice in my office. Aw.

A watery dystopian tale! Creepy moss! Deadly seals! Almost 100% no cannibalism! I can't think what more anyone might want. Pre-order from @newestpress.bsky.social or your fave bookstore: bookshop.newestpress.com/products/the...
