In light of some magazines pulling scummy things on creators lately, I’m doing a little thread on short story rights. I don't want anybody getting taken advantage of. Also, if you're new, this stuff can be confusing!

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you’re not obligated to justify your choice of music, books, television, or films to anyone.

All of those matter. If you have a personal reason, it may be great to disclose it, but do not let it take over. Think of it as a bonus qualification that you want to share. It also might be toward the end of the piece.

What do you mean? The statement is about your life and experiences and how they prepare you for this step. Two pages single-spaced is the max, so consider what space you have.

My mother called it “theft” since I warned before I raided.

Be patient and kind to those who are making art right now. We're all self-funded and the richest, worst people in the world are trying to plaster over and erase our hard work.

You are amazing, kind, and generous. Please don’t let loud voices distract from the millions of folks who adore your books. I just created a new fan by buying my friend Hemlock & Silver. Daggerbound helped me get through a truly messy week. You do a ton of good. Please ignore the naysayers.

I looked and remembered why I often avoid people. T. Kingfisher is amazing and morons can go crawl back under rocks.

Wear sunglasses and explain. It will suck, but you will survive. I’ve done it. Hugs! I hope it breaks soon.

In a delightful first, I signed a contract to publish a book review as Martha Johnson-Olin and agreed to publish two stories for M. Weigel on the same night.

You can pull the heat back, which will end the fire, but if it has raged for long and likely due to the sudden change, the roof might collapse.

She would be delighted that we earned a doctorate. She would be surprised by the focus on Middle English romances but would love the subfield on fairy tales. She would not approve of how exhausted I am sometimes am on the other side though.

Have any of you published with Red Penguin Collection? I would love to ask a few questions if you have.

I can vouch for the collection! Great pieces! Go read Devan’s work!

My favorite monster is hard. I love so many. I’ll stick with fairy lore today. The cat-sìth is lovely.

It was an absolute delight. I read it in a week, happily blocking out the world (as much possible) until I finished. I also picked up the audio version for future reading when the trilogy is complete. I’ve read six books from you this year and have enjoyed all of them.
