January's poem in audio is a public post over on my Patreon. I hope you'll give it a listen. This was written for an anthology call, and made it to the final round before receiving a positive and personal rejection. While I was bummed it didn't make it in, I was proud of myself for … Continue reading Daylight Savings (poem)
New Story Drop!
With the New Year, I have a new story for you. “I don’t want to lose you.” What she meant to say was, I love you, but the words tangled around and came out upside down.

Your character, Stella, gives … Continue reading Spiritfarer and The Empress of Fortune and Salt

She agreed to lay out how it worked for … Continue reading Guest Post by Neve Maslakovic
