Cover for Emma Stanley's novel, Undertaking Life, showing a woman kneeling in a flower garden, surrounded by bees and a black dog, in a folk art style.
Just got to see the unbelievable cover for UNDERTAKING LIFE and I'm obsessed. Sweet, melancholy story of an undertaker and his ghosts, out Sept 1! You can pre-order it here: a.co/d/deeef1l
Happiest pub day to @audreywilsonauthor.bsky.social 🎉🎉
I keep pitching this book to anyone who will listen as "what if the meet-the-parents scene from Twilight had been a horror movie." It's so good and so spooky but firmly asserts that the scariest thing imaginable is televangelism.
I was introduced by @levgrossman.com's wonderful newsletter to this @zadiesmith.bsky.social piece. It's always an oblique kind of pleasure to see how much everyone else is suffering through it--
This is not a real solution, but if you're a trans author affected by the itch.io ban and you'd like to talk to a professional editor about traditional publishing, you can contact me through the link in my bio and I will happily throw you all the resources I have/answer any questions, etc.
Excellent reporting here on the itch ban and the effect it's already having on queer/trans authors (and includes steps for what you can do to push back):
I did 😭 thank you, but this was truly all you!!!
Couldn't be happier for @virginiablack.bsky.social and NO SHELTER 😭🎉
GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS in Vogue!
Putting this into the world: I'd love to work on more queer scifi this year (anything that would comp Becky Chambers, Martha Wells, Tamsyn Muir). If you have a project like that, I'd be willing to offer more flexible rates to get my hands on it. More on my work + my contact info at kithaggard.work!
Couldn't be more pleased to work for this amazing team 🎉

So fun to see this one in @bookriot.bsky.social!
Indescribable feeling to learn that everything you'll ever learn could "comfortably fit on a small thumb drive."
The unparalleled @kwonley.bsky.social in @strangehorizons.bsky.social today!!!! strangehorizons.com/fiction/exit...
Universal response really seems to be, "Wow that sucks."
You learn something new every day
Just after I was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease, I started a weird little essay/chronicle of my experience fighting with my insurance company and paying mystery bills and trying to get care for my spine, and boy am I thinking about that today no real reason

What too much Vampire Weekend does to a major American newspaper
It's baffling to me
Every day, I am begging the New York Times on hands and knees to adopt the Oxford comma.

Incredible interview with Samara Breger on @torbooks.bsky.social that covers, among other things, a great little tour through the vampire novels I grew up on:
