Happy to share I’ll be published in the March issue of Ghost Parachute alongside so many of my favorite flash writers! Gratitude to @brettpribble.bsky.social for saying YES. And mahalo to @francinewitte.bsky.social for the prompt that somehow pulled this speculative story from my subconscious.

Honored to be joining many writers I admire in the upcoming Ghost Parachute anthology (editor @brettpribble.bsky.social) for this speculative story. Strangely, feels like a good match for the speculative world in which we find ourselves living right now. ghostparachute.com/issue/june-2...

Confession at the Last Bar in the World — Ghost Parachute

It started with birds. We named the first one Martha, a nod to her namesake, the last of the passenger pigeons, who died in 1914. Then, we went for a whole flock of ‘em and Carolina parakeets and Ivor...

Amanda Gorman wrote this poem for Renee Good and that’s it for me tonight.

Post from Amanda Gorman’s Instagram that says

amandascgorman
Minneapolis, Minnesota
For Renee Nicole Good
Killed by ICE. on January 7, 2026
by Amanda Gorman
They say she is no more, That there her absence roars, Blood-blown like a rose.
Iced wheels flinched & froze.
Now, bare riot of candles, Dark fury of flowers, Pure howling of hymns.
If for us she arose,
Somewhere, in the pitched deep of our grief, Crouches our power,
The howl where we begin,
Straining upon the edge of the crooked crater Of the worst of what we've been.
Change is only possible, & all the greater, When the labour
& bitter anger of our neighbors
Is moved by the love
* better angels of our nature.

First off, I just have to say, I love the Bath Flash Fiction Award! Thank you so much to @judehwriter2.bsky.social and @kazbarwrites.bsky.social for seeing and appreciating my cranky, zero-fucks-given Menopausal Woman character. She's a real hoot!

I’m happy to say my first poem ever is in the Writers Resist Fall 2025 issue. Thanks to @kbgressitt.bsky.social and the entire WR staff for making the biggest wish of teenage-me-poet come true. Thanks also to @smokelong.bsky.social where this story (and pretty much every story of mine) was drafted.

So many great lines to quote from this story, many maybe not appropriate to share here. But this will give you an idea of the story’s tone. “Ah, I’m a teetotaller myself!” Reynolds said sliding off the bar. He tapped a nostril. “Except the odd snoot toot of Columbian booger sugar.” Just read it!

Hey #birders. Highly recommend this piece on Florence Merriam Bailey (by @melissasevigny.bsky.social) who recommended the use of binoculars--& not guns--in birding. “The fact of the matter is,” she wrote...“you can identify perhaps 90 percent of the birds you see with an opera-glass and patience.”
