Just finished reading an ARC of "Different Kinds of Defiance" by Renan Bernardo is mostly on Bluesky — wow! Highly recommended for those who (like me) want to believe in a better future but struggle with utopian visions. And I think it's being released in just two days!

Sometimes a protagonist is so awful they need a content warning! Thrilled that In Another Time Magazine understood the vision of a story that could have been solarpunk if it weren't for the protagonist, and that "The Legacy of the Vines" is forthcoming in Issue 2!

My MA final project explored the experience of place in California, so I'm thrilled to have a piece forthcoming in the great underscore_magazine that includes exactly that! Here comes instability, a shifting identity, and the sense that you can never go back to what you were.

Honored to be part of this issue with a micro inspired by Elsie Walker, the young woman whose 1928 murder in Aotearoa New Zealand remains (technically) unsolved.

BTW, don't forget to support the fiction you love by posting reviews wherever you can 💛 GoodReads, Amazon, your personal blog, anywhere. It's often very hard for indie works to be noticed and a simple tweet or a couple of words is worth a lot.

What would happen if Joan Didion's "The Dam" met a successfully solarpunk future? This almost-flash piece in the brilliant Does It Have Pockets is my take on an answer.

It's always a pleasure to write about my almost-home city, and even more of a pleasure when that piece finds the perfect home itself!

What an honor! Thanks to DreamForgeMagazine for giving this story the perfect home, and WSFA for considering it for the award. Such wonderful news to hear upon moving (back) to Aotearoa New Zealand!
