Despite everything this year has thrown at me, I set aside an afternoon today to finish and submit my Sauútiverse story for the next anthology. And I think it worked very well. I decided to experiment, and I am pleased with the results.

And no, it's not about the structure of IPs, but of control.

There's no greater evidence of this than the still infuriatingly disproportionate level of excitement about the Sauútiverse, which is the *best* of literature and literary futures.

But they can't write for it, can't exploit it. So.

Also, my brilliant lovely husband helped me figure out the bones of my next Sauútiverse story. I am so glad.

The Sauútiverse is so amazing!! I can't wait to read this addition -- the last chapter of the book I'm writing is going to be on the Sauútiverse and collective storytelling and I'm so excited to sit with your and everyone's stories!!

For me its my novella "Descent". Because its set in the Sauútiverse which is unique and dear to my heart, and because its a story rooted in traditional African epistemology, the unbearable weight of parental expectations and the limits of all knowledge - clarkesworldmagazine.com/talabi_05_25/
