Lindz McLeod - THE MISEDUCATION OF CAROLINE BINGLEY is out now! @lindzmcleod.bsky.social · 4h
I've been so busy prepping for my viva that I forgot to promote my latest novella! WE, THE DROWNING follows a young man at the end of the world who has just discovered his mother's ties to a drowning cult. Despite that, it's a vaguely hopeful sci-cli-fi adventure with a pink fairy armadillo!
The photo shows the cover of the book WE, THE DROWNING by Lindz McLeod. The cover features a pale, parched beach with several dead bodies artfully strewn along the shoreline. Several bare trees frame the edges.

Oh hey, hi. A great read, from what reviewers say. Check it out for yourself! #WritingCommunity #Poetry #Poets #Poems #Authors www.amazon.com/World-Design...
A Goodreads review by JG MacLeod of World By Design."Poetry is supposed to make you feel. It is supposed to make you understand. That is what makes us truly human. Clearly, Aikin is." Review by JC Paulson, author of Blood & Dust."Poetry for everyone who seeks beyond the conventional. These poems invited me to slow down. Some of them I had to read twice because they felt layered, almost like riddles."Q: How has your upbringing in Buffalo, NY, influenced your writing and perspective on the world?

A: In my experience I think Buffalonians have their own spin on the world at large, for better or for worse. We carry an underdog mentality, a feeling of being disrespected at times, but we're also a caring and loving people. Even though I'm not in Western New York anymore, you'll never be able to take it out of me. It's in my brain, my heart, and my spirit, and I hope that's evident in my work.
