For those at @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social I'm currently in the dealer's room at the @elsewhen.press table and can be persuaded to sign copies of my novel "Body and Soul" if you wish!

Heart is a world recovering from a catastrophe so long ago that inhabitants, unaware of history, live in isolated settlements, their only outside information from lone nomads.
