–BUT I have also vowed to resist the devaluation of art with every fiber of my being. So. Please support your favorite human creators, and support nonprofits that support the arts, including @reckoningmag.bsky.social, @bcsmagazine.bsky.social and @strangehorizons.bsky.social

Here's a link to the podcast:

I love all my stories, but THIS one is my favorite of the stories I've written so far. If you read any of my stories, I hope it's this one. And I hope you love it . Thank you to everyone who's critiqued it or read it or just listened to me joke about necromancers before

a version of this story helped me get into the life-changing Odyssey Writing Workshop @odysseyworkshop.bsky.social

I revised it over and over since then as I improved my craft. but I remember how talking about the story was the first time I felt I might actually be able to do this writing thing

here's the link! I'm grateful to have the story appear in such a dream magazine and among such incredible company
