I had a 15K story, "Home Front", scheduled for issue 18 of BLACK CAT MYSTERY MAGAZINE.
Notified today that recent issue, #16, was the last. BCMM cancelled. *sigh*
Not bragging, "Home Front" is probably my best work ever. Hard to find markets for 15K, but guess it's back to the submission grind.

In 2087, a message from deep space warns Earth a harbinger of doom is hurtling towards our planet. It also outlines a plan to save us, but at what cost? Is it a hoax, or a trap, or will we indeed soon face extinction—unless we agree to the ‘Alliance’s terms? #BookSky #SFF amazon.com/dp/B0F82Y9S7X

Some great news. My hybrid memoir IN OPEN COUNTRY will now be published by Little, Brown. It’s about freedom of movement and stillness in the US, and the ways capitalism & settler colonialism have shaped (and continue to shape) the answer to who has either across time. I also do a lot of walking.

Fuck cancer 🤍 🕯
The big green slimy blob stands there slurping.
Raven pulls out her sword and dagger and chops off a tentacle.
"Do not take one step further into my house!" She says angrily. "Now get out, before I take more!"
It slowly squelches back out the door.

I've finished the earlier scene with Julia's application to the Wise Women's Society & (hopefully!) made her a stronger & more focused character because of it. So, tomorrow, I'll be back with Fleur. 😄
