one of the best things in life: picking honeycrisps in the orchard and then eating the honeycrisps picked from the orchard
(not to take away from anyone/any place that HAS supported us--there have been a lot of amazing moments on this journey so far, but just wanted to specifically shout out Locus) :)
want to shout out @locusmag.bsky.social real quick. being an small, indie publisher is hard af. like, you don't even KNOW--I've run into so many organizations/institutions that just don't give us the time of day. but here we are in LOCUS, getting our first novella reviewed. it means the WORLD 😍
i worked hard on this, alongside inkshark (who did all the actual work), and sever beautiful assists from @ect.bsky.social you're gonna love this issue. i can't wait for you to read it !
i wanted a different kind of cover for this one--something stark, something that grabs your attention... something where, when you see it it jolts you a little bit and you're like damn. what's up with this cover??? what kind of stories are inside a cover like this?! cont. below:
come say hello to @ the @psychopomp.bsky.social#readercon where I am selling books! and in between selling books, I am working on my novel about... a book seller that gets bit by... a radioactive book? and becomes... A RADIOACTIVE BOOK that bites other people and books...
But also, wow! That book stack is… STACKED if you know what I mean
Lovely Creatures *for sure* wink wink 😉
