One more reminder that I’ll be one of the readers for Speculative Sundays, a free online poetry reading series, this Sunday, Nov. 16 at 4pm Pacific time. Come end your weekend strong with some poetry!
And as I’ve mentioned, I have a new story in the anthology The Muddy Goose Guide to the Weird Northwest. We’re cooking up a fun event to be hosted online by Vintage Books (they’re the bookstore that hosted an event for the Claw Machine anthology earlier this year). Mark your calendars for Dec. 2 at 7pm Pacific time for this new one.
I realize I’ve been keeping quiet on my actual writing these days. Autumn is usually good to me. Last month I broke through a block that had me stymied for a while, and I penned a few poems, started a couple new stories (I like to have multiple going at a time), and got an influx of research for a story that’s been eluding me for years. My process is slow, so I’ve got to enjoy whatever progress I can claim. And always aim to make the end product worth the wait.
