We're a U.S. based organization, so yes, at least to start. But we'd like to do a lot of these things outside the U.S. too. For example, no reason a writer's retreat can't be anywhere in the world, same with a conference, etc.

"Swamp Witch Season" is a poem that's near and dear to my heart, and Solarpunk is a market I've been trying valiantly to crack for years. I'm extra chuffed that this work of mine is the one to grace their pages. πŸ’šπŸΈβ˜˜οΈ

Left: Bald and glorious Jean-Luc Picard looking handsome as hell. "Dignified, majestic."

Right: Stephen Miller, Satan's own polyp, with atrocious sprayed-on hair during a press interview. It's OK to feel confident with faux hair, all the power to you (I'm balding too!), just don't be caught doing it up like a Halloween costume while *also* being a racist ghoul. "graceless loser shit"

And just because someone is queer or trans doesn't mean they're part of "The Left." Just ask Caitlyn Jenner.

Trump's Big Beautiful Bill Will Destroy America's Climate Progress Donald Trump and Republicans are using the "Big Beautiful Bill" to roll back climate provisions in the Inflation Reduction Act.

The new right wing pork bill will destroy what little progress the U.S. has made on climate change.
