Two of my stories made it on the Locus and Nerds of a Feather recommended reading lists! Also I’ll be on a Stabbycon panel!

I am thrilled to announce that both my novella The Giants of the Violet Sea and my short story How the Girls Came Home are on the Locus Recommended Reading List! It has been a privilege to have two things on this list. I still can’t believe it! 

This means that the Locus Awards are open for anyone to vote and even write in their own choices from last year! If you’d like to vote for the stories you loved last year here is the link. I would be honored if you considered any of my stories. 

Furthermore, The Giants of the Violet Sea is on the 2022 Nerds of a Feather Hugo Awards Recommended Reading List fot the novella category! Nerds of a Feather is a 2021 Hugo Award Winner for Best Fanzine and an awesome site all around so being included on their list makes me swell with joy. Check out their list and recommendations to discover new writers! 

Finally, I will be taking part in StabbyCon this year! StabbyCon is an online convention organized by Reddit’s r/Fantasy community and the programming is super cool! I will be on the panel Putting Your Heart on the Page: Writing from the Margins (Short Stories) with Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki, Johannes T. Evans and John Wiswell. An awesome group of people who I am sure will have many interesting things to say. Our panel will be help on Feb 7th, 12pm EST | 5pm GMT.

Come and asks us some questions and check out all the other interesting discussions happening between Jan 31st and Feb 11th!
