(interstitial dead letter)

I'm extremely pumped to have a piece of short fiction coming out this month with F(r)iction--my contributor copies will be arriving soon, & I fully expect to have pictures to show you when they do, once I'm done clutching them lovingly to my chest, since I was lucky enough to have a story illustrated by the incredible Isabel Burke.

The story itself is a fantasy very much rooted in my trans experience, & I'm blown away by the authors I get to keep company with here--Carmen Maria Machado! MARTHA WELLS, the creator of my beloved Murderbot!

If you enjoy the Dead Letters slipping into your inbox, please consider getting your hands on the story, which is currently available for pre-order as both a digital edition & an actual physical object we can hold in our sweaty little hands. Both will be released on December 15th, & I've included a link below. I can't wait to hear what you think.

Thank you, as always, for supporting my work. Knowing you're reading these letters helps me keep going.
