Thank you for this Seanan. This is such a helpful thread.
The cover for Uncanny Magazine Issue 62, “Mermay - Golden Hour" by Maxine Vee: In a forest of brown, orange, and golden leaves, a mermaid with orange/gold hair sits on a rock in a small light blue pond. She stares at her open palms, illuminated by a beam of sunlight. Purple flowers in shade lie scattered on the ground in the foreground. The quote reads: "The form is one page long. No back. Just a front. It should be longer. There are six copies of the form, all different colors. Like I’m working my way through the rainbow to the end where I’ll finally find peace. Red. A parent or guardian. I meet my mother for lunch at the little bistro down the street."

Got to hang out with @brucecoville.bsky.social today at #rewind book fair and @greendragonbooks.bsky.social . What a delightful and kind person. Watching his readers meet with him just warmed my heart so much. The books we read when we’re young are like nothing else. They burrow into us.
I am up so early for the Rewind Book Fair. So early. 😭
Yall are not prepared for @wiswell.bsky.social ‘s “The Dragon has some Complaints”. I’m reading it rn and it’s fucking amazing.

Thank you so much John.
I wrote this story during the occupation of ICE in Minneapolis. There are links in the author interview and adspace on the actual webpage if you would like to help.
One of my favorite blogs ever. @shawnaborman.bsky.social

Bottom of a website screen it says Abolish Ice
Wow I did not even see the adspace at the bottom of “Hell is Empty” until today.
