Looking forward to my first in-person @canconsffh.bsky.social NEXT WEEK (how did that happen?). I'll be on two panels on subjects I love: collaborative writing & Alanna the Lioness (and other formative queer fantasy works), as well as celebrating the release of CASTOFF by @brandoncrilly.bsky.social!

This #BiVisibilityDay, now more than ever, as a bisexual, it's my job to lurk ominously in the incongruous shadows of a completely white room. Might fuck around and Emerge later.
The cover of Newsweek magazine from July 17, 1995 depicting a tall light-skinned masculine person flanked by a light-skinned blonde femme person and a masculine person with tan skin and a dark brown beard. All three stare directly into the camera with grim expressions, their faces in half-shadow. The text reads: Bisexuality. Not gay. Not straight. A new sexual identity emerges.

Catch me at Worldcon!
White text on black background which says: Sat 12:00pm-1:00pm Not Just Training Wheels Fanfic is often claimed to be "good for practice" on one's route to becoming a professional author, but this is not the only reason people write fanfic. Panelists will discuss some of the others: Bonding with a community, exploring story concepts with very niche appeal, enjoying a personal fantasy, and more. Sat 4:30pm-5:30pm The Keys to Creative Collaboration Writing is a notoriously isolating activity, and writers defend their independence fiercely. But writing collaborations have a long and rich history, and can provide the strengths of both authors in one package. Every collaboration is different, but there are some universals. Panelists discuss their own experiences, pros and cons of collaborative writing.
