So excited to see this fantasy/magic anthology out in the world! Only four more days to go, and my story has the privilege of opening the collection. Check out my Substack for a closer look at what inspired my main character. #amwritingfantasy 💙📚 #Booksky open.substack.com/pub/musingsi...

Soon, this anthology releases (e-book is free)! My contribution, “Elspeth and the Fairy,” is a romantic and hopeful tale about the power of an ordinary person to effect change in a dark and chaotic world. For more detail, check out my Substack! #amwritingfantasy

Running a literary magazine of any kind is a labor of love. Mia and her amazing, supportive team did a gorgeous job with the Ditch Life debut, and I am proud to have a piece included among such lovely, thoughtful, and moving work. What a beautiful way to end the summer.

Our farmhouse is 200 years old, and our contractor found this while digging our new leach field.

Apparently, it brought me some luck. Not long after, I had a story accepted into this beautiful magic and fantasy anthology coming out September 16th.

I'm excited to share more soon!

The boycott is over, I’ve seen some a few authors say sales just dropped, rather than moved to other sites, I hope everyone isn’t back to Amazon this week…

A boycott is chance to find alternatives and use them long term. Short boycotts do little compared to long term change. Ideas below.
