Taking the time to study a stack of novel first chapters. It's refreshing to read a few pages without being concerned about whether I'd be invested in the whole book!
Maybe I should cull my TBR this way 😝

With the Nectar Comes the Sting – Apparition Literary Magazine

An oldie but a goodie. I love how this story by @jenniferhudak.bsky.social lingers awhile after the ending.

I do! So much tweaking... And then I need a break before revisiting what I'd thought was an awesome revision 🫠

I finally gave in to peer pressure and made an award eligibility graphic (two months late 😂). Nebula nominations close in less than a week and Hugos in a month! Would love if you considered my poems or short stories.

Silk and Foxglove anthology, a BIPOC erotic eco-horror anthology, with a collaged artwork of a red circle, a dragonfly, and a sensual rear end!

Silk and Foxglove anthology, a BIPOC erotic eco-horror anthology, with a collaged artwork of a red circle, a dragonfly, and a sensual rear end!

Due to the sudden closure of the small press publishing our anthology, we're looking for a new home!

"Silk and Foxglove" is a BIPOC anthology of 13 stories of erotic-eco-horror! It's weird, gorgeous, evocative, & unnerving as hell!

Please boost! If any small presses are interested, let me know!

Remembering the Hungry Ghosts, by Emmi Khor Chee usually spends his days driving aged-care seniors around Darwin, but tonight, he isn’t driving for the living.

Super-stoked to be approached for translation to my story that was shortlisted as a Best Australian Yarn, was a finalist into the Aurealis Awards, and reprinted by @innerworlds.bsky.social I'll be in a translated anthology next year! 🥹

Good morning, creatives! During these difficult and stressful times, self-care is important. Writing has always been a form of meditation for me because I become immersed in the story, and I let go of the stress. Here are other ways to destress.

Had a bad water leak in our wall and it has been 3 days living on limited water until the plumber can fix it. Now, all I can smell is that wet mouldy stench while I critique a manuscript! 🫠

Hope your #writing session is better smelling!
