The Works of Vermin He was sent to kill a pest. Instead, he found a monster…

This book is out in two months, and it’s absurd—insulting! to me, personally!—that more people aren’t talking about it. 😤

I really believe The Works of Vermin will be the best fantasy novel of 2025. If you like weird, rich, heartfelt work, you’ve got to check it out.

just watched BRING HER BACK… i fear i will never be the same again

The cover for WE'RE HERE 2024. An earth-toned wild hunt tapestry with muted rainbow-y accents being looked at by a trio of rad queer people in a museum-esque framing.

We're delighted to share the cover (by @mspencerdraws.bsky.social) and announce the table of contents for WE'RE HERE: THE BEST QUEER SPECULATIVE FICTION 2024, selected by editor @rykaaoki.bsky.social and working with series editor @cypayseur.bsky.social!

The Trans Rights Readathon is 21st-31st March! Get your TBR ready! There are a bunch of prompts below. This is a brilliant annual fundraiser event. I will be thinking about how I want to contribute this year. #booksky #queerbooksky #transbooksky #diversebooksky

A poster for the economic blackout on February 28. It is a big red Jack rabbit on an aqua blue back ground. It says economic blackout in hand done black type. There are two black speech bubbles. One says “don’t buy stuff Friday February 28th. The other says we have power. Below it says No Amazon, Walmart, target, gas food, gas. Below that it says OK small business, use cash. Designed by Martha Rich.

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

I have a cover reveal for THE ISLE IN THE SILVER SEA on Friday. ⚔️🔮🌊

i cried myself into a migraine. how is everyone else’s monday going?!

Vamola’s story took us by surprise! (via #Dandadan, Vol. 11)
