Halloween has come and gone but the dead return on the eve of the New Year. They remember what the living can never forget, around a dining table full of heavy silences, and broken hearts. But deep inside the ground there's love to be found.

Please follow and read @fantasymagazine.bsky.social.
Issue 99 which will be dropping over the next month has stories that may make you cry, poetry that speaks to the interstices of the politics of our moment, and interviews that made me personally want to go back to my writing desk and create. 💕

I stand on its edge and hold out my palm.
A plum—blood red and dewy—falls into my hand from the sky."

As with pretty much any conversation I have with @drkarenlord.bsky.social and @annaleen.bsky.social, this interview was a delight, further enlivened by @arleysorg.bsky.social's excellent interview questions. And you still have a week to pre-order our anthology of speculative fiction about activism!
