I wrote Wrath Goddess Sing, a book that drags other books behind its chariot and boasts about it.

I received my contributor's copy of Storyteller: A Tanith Lee Tribute Anthology today. I wept.

When I was young and in desperate need, Tanith Lee's stories came to me like a wind from another world. I hope her name lives forever. I hope I can bestow gifts like she did.

You could so easily be on a beach in a storm, reading about Achilles storming a beach.

The dulcet tones of @katrafiy.bsky.social have never been more affordable. Listen to Wrath Goddess Sing before a great doom overtakes us all. The book that the Bronze Age Collapse could not collapse. Whispered in your ear.

I'm honored that my work appears in this tribute anthology to the legendary Tanith Lee, STORYTELLER. If you're a fan of me, you should preorder. If you're a fan of Tanith Lee, definitely preorder--and tell me which of her books first pierced your brain like a cruel, beautiful thorn.

Here's an entire very short story I wrote at the very end of 2015 in a moment of totally non-autobiographical non-self-mythologizing inspiration. It's about self-actualization through transition, and it's called "The Grand Hotel."

My gift to you, free of charge.

The opening pages of "A Notorious Intergalactic Criminal" (2024), which you can obtain in EMBODIED EXEGESIS from @neonhemlock.bsky.social (ed. @robotleblanc.bsky.social). It is about the hunt for God, a notorious intergalactic criminal wanted for wanton propagation of species.

work in progress. as I find and use tools, you will gradually see Alexander the Great emerge from the sky above a burning city. it's done when you *almost* see him but can still convince yourself you don't
