The full FF 2026 lineup is officially set and I can't tell you how excited I am for what we've got in store for you!

We've got:
-writers making their second appearances in FF!
-writers you'll likely recognize from their work in other mags!
-writers making their debuts in SFFH short fiction land!

SO stoked to be part of this awesome line-up with my short story about a (very) immersive MMORPG!!!

"My Sincere Apologies For the Demon" is out today in Beneath Ceaseless Skies #443!

It's got liquor, malevolent entities from other planes of existence, and a warlock getting bounced from the club.

Also art, I suppose.

Was told this year that children's books weren't profitable enough and should be deprioritized, which is just a load of horsecrap:

1) Kidlit is recession-proof bc parents will always buy books for their kids.

2) With all these book bans happening, it's more important than ever to support kidlit.
