Very proud I can get my eternal gripe—it's *not* all fanfiction—into the Washington Post haha. (I'm interviewed here alongside very smart folks like @prof-anne.bsky.social & @ceciliaaragon.bsky.social!)
Fan fiction is everywhere, if you know how to look
Writers who were once relegated to the internet are reshaping traditional publishing. It’s partly thanks to their infectious, generous passion.

I am no-one’s father. Not even a man. But, if today you feel sad or lonely where many are celebrating a bond with their own fathers, I’m here. I’m proud of you for all that makes you who you are. Your kindness, your imagination, your hope. You need do nothing to prove yourself to me.

I love you.
