Susan Collins hands Trump the 50th vote against free and fair elections When it comes to free and fair elections, Collins is as conservative and anti-voting rights as they come.

When it comes to free and fair elections, Collins is as conservative and anti-voting rights as they come. Not only is she supporting the SAVE Act, but during the Biden administration she opposed the For the People Act and the Joe Manchin compromise bill — the Freedom to Vote Act.

hm yes i agree

😁

Up there with an acceptance is a reader who reaches out to say they liked your piece. It’s so gratifying to know you’ve made that kind of connection.

And congrats, btw, if you just got a yes in your inbox! 🙂

hey hey hey I have a short story collection coming out soon. I'd love to do more interviews and get copies out to reviewers. I’ll also be at AWP and have one reading lined up but open to more... 10 years ago did a reading of an apatosauruses story that made someone cry, if that helps.

Thanks! 🙂

Can we all just take a minute to recognize and celebrate my pal Jay and the excellent first year his debut has lived out in the world?

The success of a debut can be about marketing spend or sheer luck. I read Ibis and I assure you it's been shortlisted for its second major award on literary merit.

Mainers, I know ICE is hitting Portland right now. Maine's ICE Watch Hotline is ☎️ 207-544-9989. More info here:

Tomorrow is today! And if you hate dialing, 5calls.org lets you click to call your electeds. It even gives scripts (though I like the one below).

5 Calls Spend 5 minutes. Make 5 calls. Make your voice heard.

Call Congress:

202-224-3121

All you have to do is say the name of the rep or senator you're trying to reach, and the system will put you through.

If it's outside business hours, leave a message.

Keep calling.

This is also a good resource: 5calls.org

This is the switchboard for Congress. An automated voice will ask you which senator or representative you want to reach and will transfer you to that person's line.

If you call today, you'll get voicemail but will usually be able to leave a message: (202) 224-3121.

An Anthology of Rural Stories by Writers of Color, 2025 - EastOver Press Third in a series, this anthology edited by Deesha Philyaw features short fiction written by contemporary writers of color. From farms to trading posts, basketball courts to kitchens, houses to cafes,...

This book is now out in the world and I’m jazzed to have a story in it.
