I've had 3 stories edited by Samantha Kolesnik, which makes them special. Those anthologies went out of print years ago.
But thanks to @datlow.bsky.social @manylittlewords.bsky.social & @nefariousbatpress.bsky.social, the stories are back in new books 🖤 hopefully Sam's novellas will follow someday.

Last night I celebrated the UK launch of ITCH! in my beautiful city of Bristol, at Stanford's, a place I've haunted for years as a reader. Surreal and brilliant to be there as a published author and to speak in front of friends and family.
My son was in attendance, which meant everything to me. 🥰
