Listening to one of my favorite international writers on #InternationalWritersDay - the inimitable Liliana Corobca - give a brilliant talk on the vexed history of the Republic of Moldova. No wonder it was so hard to draw the map for Too Great a Sky Seven Stories Press Seven Stories Press UK

A pretty incredible residency opportunity in Romania for experienced screenwriters working on their first feature film. Applications due by April 19. pustnik.com

I'm very excited for this upcoming conversation with Sawad Hussain, along with @chernydar, as part of the MK Lit Fest! The Censor's Notebook (Seven Stories Press Seven Stories Press UK) meets The Book Censor's Library (Restless Books). Sign up and join us: mklitfest.org/translation!

Among the lost positives consigned to the dusty corners of the dictionary is ‘reck’, meaning ‘care’, ‘heed’, and ‘consideration’. Which means we can be reckful instead of reckless (and feckful, gormful, ruthful, ept, kempt, couth, consolate, and many more).

About to take off for LA and my first ever #AWP conference! Looking forward to connecting to some of you on here. Advice welcome! I've already heard it's like drinking from a fire hose and to pace myself...

More than about time I joined the other place when I get notifications about someone I absolutely do not follow. Find me on bsky with the same name Monica Cure and I'll slowly try to find you as well.

Absolutely thrilled that my translation of Too Great a Sky by Liliana Corobca (Seven Stories Press UK/Seven Stories Press ) has been shortlisted for the #EBRDLiteraturePrize2025 in such great company!

Congrats also to ottilie mulzet @ottiliemulzet.bsky.social!
