A cover illustrated by James Fenner. A woman with long red hair and padded clothing sits on the ground, petting the head of a smiling serpentine dragon. But the dragon has more than one head! On the left, a second giant dragon head emerges, frowning, looking at her while wearing a monocle. On the right, a third giant dragon head emerges, jaws wide, screaming in anger. The text is teal, contrasting sharply against the red and maroon of the creatures. The text on the cover reads "THE DRAGON HAS SOME COMPLAINTS. JOHN WISWELL, author of the Nebula and Locus Award-winning SOMEONE YOU CAN BUILD A NEST IN."
Unveiling the cover for THE DRAGON HAS SOME COMPLAINTS!
Garrodigh is a curmudgeonly three-headed dragon who pretends to be tame so he can eat for free at the local dragon-riding academy. Unfortunately, the rider he's assigned to is... a lot.
Coming Summer 2026 from DAW (US) and Arcadia (UK)!
Gorgeous! Will this be published in Canada?

A print of a colourful digital drawing with a severed hand holding a presumably human heart in its grip. The heart is red with blue veins and arteries. The hand is light skinned with long dark blue painted nails. Blood drips down the severed wrist. This print is framed in red frame and sits on a desk with red curtains and a rainbow flag in the background.

An email stating the Taco Bell Quarterly has been added to the Library of Congress
Oh my God!? We've been added to the Library of Congress. A literary magazine that I make for fun in my basement as my midlife crisis has been added to the historical record, called the uh, ahem, Taco Bell Quarterly. We are the most prestigious literary magazine of all time.

 What are other countries doing in response to the concentration camps being used and built in El Salvador? Canβt they tax imports from El Salvador? Would pressure from Europe, Canada and countries around the world on El Salvador make a difference here?
The cover is OUT!!! So stoked! Pre-orders now open at Undertow/Amazon/B&N. The Gillan foreword and @kellylink.bsky.social's kind words blew me away. Also you can see more of Ove TΓΈpfer's wild surreal oil paintings at his IG below.
