Somehow forgot to mention (or simply can't find it now?) that my ecoSF story set in Baltimore, "The Hard Way", appears in the current issue of Tractor Beam:

I read Jeff Vandemeer's Annihilation, finished it this morning. Cor. Wow. Extraordinary ecoSF novel.

I know, I'm late. Go consider buying it.

I just got some good news. A short gender bending/ romance/ sci fi/ story I wrote is being published in The Future Fire. More details to come. Yay! futurefire.net

The morning after I dreamed about Hannah’s mermaid, three dead seagulls washed up on the shoreline. I took note of each one, their bent bodies limp on the sand, then lifted them by their feet, feathers dripping, to take into the lab. An omen, I might have called it once.

The world building of my slow-burn ecoSF: Perched On Sumerian Eyrie: Floating Ziggurat was started here in the Driftwood Roastery.

I have completed a slow-burn EcoSF and am still living in it, calling myself a Sky Nomad. I wish a lot of sky nomads will be called the sky people, if you know what I mean.
