A two-fold handout booklet from last week — a guest lecture on language in short stories for @manuscriptgal.bsky.social 's speculative short story masters course at the University of Queensland.

I love it!!

Have just finished a draft of The Demon Wall that is now in a state to be shown to another living human. Hurrah!

Hello my friends! Any recommendations for books about writing short stories? Or things you have read that have really helped?

Ha! You can see how much I use social media. But I wanted to write and tell you I loved it. :-)

It is! :-D And I'm teaching your work in my new Speculative Short Story course next semester -- so excited!

@kellylink.bsky.social Just finished devouring The Book of Love. As someone who struggled with the transition from short stories to novels, I was so impressed with how you carried over your voice and aesthetics from short form to long form. A really wonderful book and a grand accomplishment.

I loved this book so much. It still sings in my heart.

It is my favourite book from the last couple of years.
