We're still reflecting on everything we learned at #WorldCon2025 (& continuing to absorb more thanks to the accessibility of virtual panels ⭐), but it's impossible to catch everything! What were some of YOUR favorite take-aways?

Ditto to all this 😁

Delighted to announce that my little cozy horror story about a melancholy spider rancher is free to read at @chmmagazine.bsky.social !

Congratulations to Neil Clarke of @clarkesworldmagazine.com for winning this year's Hugo Award for best editor - short form. He's truly a champion as both a role model for publishers & an advocate for creators. Cheers!

#worldcon2025 was filled with silly dances, professional growth, fascinating conversations, and community. And yes, Macarena to pop songs as well.

I signed my contract so it's official: I've got a story coming out in Arcana 12 from Underland Press! It's about a dressmaker and a long dead weaver whose ghost haunts the fabric the dressmaker is about to cut. I'm very excited to share it with you all. Stay tuned for the release date! #writing
