Just discovered my story is on this list and wow, nothing compares to the feeling of having your work so thoroughly understood! Thank you @bookjockeyalex.bsky.social!

My story "Carmilla, or, the Making of a Girl" is out in Baffling Magazine and I am both thrilled and humbled! This is my very first story making its way into the world. You can read it here:

Congratulations to you both!

Going forward, the SLF wants to highlight those who made it to our final round of jury deliberations. Here is our shortlist for our 2024 Diverse Writers and Diverse Worlds Grants!

Thank you Colleen 😊!!

I only need enough to help me "suspend disbelief", so I don't get distracted from the story, trying to figure out the mechanics. And I am happy to follow the author as long as I feel grounded in the immediate location, most often through sensory specifics.

Thank you 😁

Thrilled to announce I'm now represented by
@aiden-png.bsky.social at @ldlainc.bsky.social ! Their enthusiasm and vision for my subversive “Beauty & the Beast meets Dangerous Liaisons” novel is everything I hoped for. Can't wait to unleash my hideous Lorelei and her insatiable hunger onto the world
