I am bouncing off the walls to announce that I'm now represented by @ajvanbelle.bsky.social of @bookeralbertagency.bsky.social! From the get-go, they understood this strange world and its characters and helped them to shine bright. I'm excited to begin this mycorrhizal symbiosis!

A graphic with CYANOSIS at the top, saying MORGAN WODRING is now represented by A.J. Van Belle of the Booker Albert Agency. The background is an illustration of a man and a woman back to back with a purple wyvern between them.

I had a great time today at my local Barnes & Noble meeting with readers and signing books! It was my first-ever signing event and I sold 16 books, 14 of them to total strangers 😱🎉

A picture of Millie Abecassis, a 35-yo white woman with shoulder-length brown hair, brown eyes, glasses, and wearing a pink and purple top, sitting at a table in a bookstore and smiling to the camera. The table is covered with books, bookmarks, and other items. Behind are shelves of books.

inished this commission for @millieabecassis.com! This will be a freebie with copies of Bright City, Shattered, available soon from Polymath Press. Millie gave me a copy so I could come up with this concept and it's a fabulous novella. So I was very happy to bring this to life!

An androgynous woman surrounded by fragments of a bright blue crystal. Reflections of a red-haired woman, an orca-like creature, a casette and a notebook fill the crystal shards.

not to be the “i liked it before i was cool” guy in the thread, but this world has been morgan’s baby for as long as i’ve known them and it deserves to get its roses. excited for the day i get to hold the 1:1 scale version of it.

a photo of a teeny miniature book— cyanosis by morgan wodring— about the size of a quarter, held between two fingertips. it looks like an old-school scifi pulp paperback, with a teal cover and the title in chunky silver text.
