Time for a social media break. See you in a few days. 💋

My degree is an ecology and evolutionary biology, but I’m also interested in all life sciences as well as space-related fields.

I do not yet know what role I'll have, but I'm looking forward to working with a local school as needed.

Today, I made the decision to return to volunteering for schools. I had done this for years when my kids were small. Now that I'm in LA, it makes sense to use what strengths I have (science, writing, art) to help our youth get where they need to be, especially if they have special needs.

We are still crowd-funding for this great anthology! There are perks at all levels. #books #horror

Congratulations to our wonderful author @pedroiniguez.bsky.social (ECHOES AND EMBERS) for winning the Elgin Award (as well a the Bram Stoker, earlier this year) for MEXICANS ON THE MOON, his poetry collection published by @spacecowboybooks.bsky.social!

#TheLegendLiminal by @voidcricket is featured in Thursday's #newbooks haul on youtube!

I kind of saw this being telegraphed for a while, which is one reason I did not want to invest a lot here and in some ways you have to go with the devil you know, so I stuck with threads because it helps me with my community. I still hate to see this.

My picture book The Fib from @gloobooks.bsky.social (10/07/25) has a new review!

"The Fib is a creative and memorable tale that teaches children about the impact of their words and the value of truth, while also celebrating the positive power of imagination."--The Children's Book Review

I've had my eye on this one! Love a heist novel!

I've now given workshops across speculative fiction for this topic, and helped build a panel. It's a fun topic!

A couple of years ago, I shared my knowledge of ecology and how to use its concepts to improve your fiction universes, whether in fantasy, sci-fi, or horror. I'm sharing the article again. Thank you, @sfwa.bsky.social! "The Ecology of Worldbuilding"

The moronathon.

Yes, LA is a treasure drove on so many levels, especially. My favorite big city I’ve ever lived in, and it’s not even close.

Thank you so much. I worked with an effect guy in Hollywood a few years ago to have this custom made.

Saw a plant shaking, looked up, and Perky the Squirrel popped out of this bush, like a gopher with a lime or a green persimmon in his mouth! 🐿️🍋‍🟩Then he proceeded to “bury” the lime inside the bush. Perky, I don’t think that’s how it works. Points for creativity though.

You know what, hey. All social media is chaos, so to cover the bases, here's a thread of other places to find me.
