From 1869, the most enjoyable novel read thus far in 2026. You can't go wrong with the crazy world of May Agnes Fleming!

My last novel, To Refrain From Embracing, is all set in the summer of 1977. These are actual photos of me in the summer of 1977. Josh, the 10-year-old boy in my novel, had a much more traumatic summer than I😮. #genx #the70s #books #canlit
Part five of “Traitor,” a serialized story inspired by Filipino mythology, is now out on my substack.

When Finn turned around, Captain Tidesong was spearing an okscuri through the chest with a peg leg that doubled as a bayonet. The evil minion faded to particles of black dust. “No sea legs, boy?” he asked Finn. “Or no stomach for the impossible depth of horror that is our birth rite?” “Both,” Finn grumbled. “Ah, well, yer young. How much time ye got?” “After this, twelve days.” “Oh. Well, at least ye’ve got yer party, eh?” “I don’t really have one.” “Damn.” A shadow fell over Finn—over the entire Retribution. A melodic cry of something huge sang out overhead. Captain Tidesong broke out into a huge, hopeful smile, showing off a mouth more gold than dentin. “The Beasts of Legend! Surely they’ll help ye in yer time, after all the effort I put in to—” The End lashed out with one nightmarish hand and grabbed the enormous, glowing bird. It squeezed. The legendary creature, this living embodiment of myth and magic, cried out for only a moment, crushed and mangled and losing its light in an instant. As The End tossed the ruined bird into one of its innumerous mouths. Captain Tidesong’s smile vanished within his greying beard. “Well. Fuck, eh?”
here's a brand spanking new snippet from my actual WIP because I thought it was pretty funny
my favourite scenes in this book are all Finn's previous incarnations ragging on him for being a loser
