I will cherish many things about this wonderful book by @nnedi.bsky.social, but as a failing writer, this line is one I will come back to: “Those moments of failure were a learning experience for me in finding and trusting my own voice.” ❤️🤖🦾 #writerslife

I'm so happy that "The Stars That Bind Us" found a wonderful home at NewMyths Online!
I almost gave up on this story, but feedback and rejections shaped it into something better.
Fitting, maybe, for a tale about enduring love. ✨

When the forces of nice weather and on-time buses align, I enjoy getting off a stop early and walking along silent #Cambridge streets to the office. I was particularly happy to see the mathematical bridge was wearing a fine spring coat at about 7am this morning 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

What if corrupt politicians had the means to rule indefinitely?
I wrote this #scifi story long before the US election - but it now feels more relevant than ever: www.lunastationquarterly.com/issues/060/
❤️ the formatting from the brilliant team at Luna Station Quarterly too!
