Thank you @undertow.bsky.social! I'm excited to burrow myself into these on the Canadian long weekend.

My weird fiction exposure so far has been Vandermeer, Mieville, and mostly older works and I'm trying to read more widely and discover new authors because: what a gorgeous genre.

Two books, published by Undertow Publications, lie on a wooden table: The Best Weird Fiction of the Year Volume One by Michael Kelly, and Uncertain Sons and Other Stories by Thomas Ha. Both have beautiful evocative covers.

Today is pub day for Tell Me Yours, I’ll Tell You Mine! However much writing can be a solitary act, putting a book out definitely isn’t. Thanks to Stillhouse Press and all of Tell Me Yours’ many champions.

My first book is out now. I hope you like it.
