Kirkus reviews THE GATEPOST It's always touch-and-go when it comes to the big trade publications that specialize in forthcoming books. Will they review the book, and if so, will the review be positive? It's quite important too, because these publications are influential with librarians and booksellers, and can be leading indicators regarding the potential success of new books out in the marketplace.

THE AFTERLIFE PROJECT out in the world: a new review & a climate fiction roundtable So pleased to see that this book continues to have momentum out in the world! Very much appreciate this brilliantly written new book review from All Our Yesterdays, an innovative site keeping track of the recent and not-so-recent history of climate landmarks, climate action, and the sordid and continuing history of denialism on this planet. You can access the entire review here. Here's a quick excerpt: "The lush narration within The Afterlife Project conjures smells, sounds, textures, and visuals of a planet that should be, of soil that we should long to kneel upon, of animals that deserve to live unfettered by the whims of humans.

Oaxaca Writers Workshop: applications now open I’m thrilled to announce that I'll be leading a new writers' workshop and craft masterclass in Oaxaca, November 14-21, 2026! If you're writing in any genre, consider giving yourself the gift of a week-long generative workshop and craft masterclass in this very spectacular corner of the world. In addition to the writing focus we’ll be doing plenty off-the-beaten track exploration of the area’s amazing artistic, archaeological, natural, and gustatory riches, and we’ll have parallel activities during the daily writing workshop for non-writer friends and significant others, such as hands-on cooking and/or Spanish classes.

Floored and profoundly honored to see that THE AFTERLIFE PROJECT is a Toronto Star favorite book for 2025!

"Good writing and a timely message about nature and humanity’s resilience make this novel stand out in what has become a crowded field of end-of-the-world lit." — The Toronto Star

💙📚 #books

Thank you!

Facing the end of the illusion that humans are not part of nature; that we haven’t from our very emergence as a species been embedded in the life of this beautiful 4.5 billion year-old planet. This would be a timely and necessary paradigm shift.

I am ecstatic and honored to report that THE AFTERLIFE PROJECT has been selected as one of Library Journal's Best Science Fiction Books of 2025. #booksky #sciencefiction #books #climatefiction #greensky 💙📚🪐
