Sadie Maskery lives in Scotland by the sea. Her short stories can be found in publications including Extra Teeth, Odd Magazine and Starship Sloane. Her most recent poetry collections are 'Overheard Lovesongs' and 'The Usual Apologies', with poems printed in The Scotsman, Poetry Scotland, Red Ogre, and various other awesome places. She can be found on Bluesky as @saccharinequeen.bskyb.social. When not writing she enjoys ambling and doodling. (That’s the blurb I sent in full. I like the ambling and doodling bit so I am adding it back in.)

Well now, there's happiness! @acidbathpublishing.bsky.social
