As we swing from spring to summer—from complaining about the cold to complaining about the heat—I have been quite a busy bee.
I’ve got lots of news to share, so let’s jump right in, shall we?
Amplitudes: Stories of Queer and Trans Futurity is out TODAY!
This anthology, edited by Lee Mandelo, has an absolutely stacked table of contents—twenty-two stories by queer and trans authors firing on all cylinders. And it contains a brand-new story by yours truly: “Forever Won’t End Like This,” a love letter to queer characters on shitty prime-time fantasy shows.

The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2025
I’m honored to share that “Look at the Moon” was chosen for inclusion in The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2025!

You can check out the anthology’s full table of contents here, and read about the process of writing “Look at the Moon” here.

June Events
And lastly, here’s what I’ll be up to in the next few weeks!
Charm City Spec
For my Baltimore pals, I’ll be reading at Charm City Spec on Saturday, June 7th. This is an outdoor event at The Ivy Bookshop—a beautiful venue—with a sick lineup of authors attending.
Amplitudes launch at Books Are Magic
If you’re in New York City, come celebrate the release of the Amplitudes anthology at Books Are Magic on Wednesday, June 11th! I’m so excited to hang with my co-contributors, who are absolute gems.
Lavender Con
On Saturday, June 14th and Sunday, June 15th, I’ll be at Lavender Con in D.C.! Please do yourself a favor and peep the roster for this queer book festival—it’s going to be magnificent.
I’ll have more to share later this summer. The best way to keep up is to subscribe to this here newsletter:
