My newest audio dispatch is now up on Patreon! Just a quick adventure tale of alien abduction with a very subtle message. This and all flash readings are available as a bundle in the Shop tab, in case you wanted to test-drive a Neo-Human pledge!

It's release day for Trans/Port, a gorgeous anthology of trans speculative fiction featuring "Conversion", my cyberpunk take on the old "what if you could take a pill to make you not queer" thought experiment (it's also got cyborg terrorists!) It's still on launch discount for $1.99 until the 8th, so get it while it's hot!
The Fedi logo seemed like a pretty obvious application of my art 😁 acrylic on wood with varnish, about 7.5” wide.

Emmie Christie's blog! She's done a broad review of my body of work, including all my free-to-read stories, as well as a mini-interview. Need a reason to read some Xauri'EL Zwaan? Check it out and tell me what *you* think!

He knew, this could be the very last modification his engine needed to finally reach and even exceed light speed, by a good amount.
Now, he just needed to prepare the software defined radio to catch anything between 10kHz and 30MHz and record it as best as possible.
Who would have thought that missing to record a simple radio broadcast way back in the 1960ies could lead to such superb new technology.
The only thing he wasn't sure about was, if he wanted to to take a reel-to-reel tape machine with him or if a digital copy would suffice.

It's tragic that Nassun, in a fit of rage, comes to understand her father's filicidal outbursts—but can't quite make the connection that what she aims to do with her fear and hatred is just as evil as what Jija did to Uche with his.
So close! Just a wee bit more self-reflection and she'd get there…
Ah, but we're only a quarter of the way through the book. There's time and hope for Nassun yet.
