Very happy to have my urban fantasy/cosmic horror drabble, “This Ain’t No Faerie Tale” in the awesome Trembling with Fear! 🩸📚

April 2026 - Flash Fiction Online

We start our April 2026 “numbers” issue with a countdown—“The Last Eleven Seconds” by David Farrow. Turning 11 seconds into a 5-min read perfectly mimics time lengthening during a scary event. 🚀

Thank you so much!

I’m so excited to have my Weird Western flash piece, “A Bone Deep Ache,” in FFO!

Thanks

The website says I don’t have an account when I try to login using the email address it keeps sending emails to. The only option I have is to hit the unsubscribe link in those emails. But, then I keep getting email from the website after unsubscribing.

PSA: I made one post to one of their forums and they signed me up to just about all their email lists. Even though I keep unsubscribing from their lists, they continue to email me. I now have to block their domain in my spam filter.

After many months of planning and designing course materials, I can’t wait to kick off the first semester of my new class this week!

The 10-week speculative fiction course for beginners is online at the University of California San Diego Extended Studies.

As far as I'm concerned, @levato.bsky.social kicked it down. Hard. Kudos--I loved it.

OMG, thank you so much!

Excited to see “A Shotgun Named Regret” in Villain Era!

10 signed copies left. Kind of the last chance to get The Barre Incidents first edition signed by @renbolger.bsky.social with an original bookmark, copy of Hellarkey 4, and secret spinach pie recipe.

Have put a lot of books in the mail in the last week, but also zines. First batch of Hellarkey is out and over 100 copies of King Ludd’s Rag, featuring stories by Tori Rego and @jedwardgregal.bsky.social, have gone out, many just as a bonus with another book that sold. Buy a book, get a zine too!

Does talking to myself through my cats count? I’m a bit afraid to count how many times that happens.

Two cats occupying a lap. One orange tabby underneath a black, brown, and white marble tabby—who is quite happy to be curled up on top of the orange cat.

Well, I’m not getting anything done today #cats #caturday
