Yesterday I got to see Octavia E. Butler’s typewriter, Samuel R. Delany’s edits and Janelle Monáe’s Archandroid crown! A perfect day

I have a new poem out in Star*Line 46.4!

My poem Wildfire came out in Nightingale & Sparrow’s Bonfire issue today. I wrote it during the period when wildfire smoke covered Ottawa, and shortly after the fire in my building. I was inspired by the fire in Parable of the Sower and Kim Stanley Robinson’s The Ministry for the Future.
