Amazing to work with, Davi is hilarious and iconic, published me AND nominated me for a prize! Don’t sleep on the small indies; you’ll get more attention and love than you will from a big magazine.

"A Swedish proverb says, “Every behavior happens for a reason.” I hope Bigger reminds readers that, despite the hurts and difficulties, they can choose to approach their loving-but-complex relationships with open-hearted curiosity." Check out this lovely interview with AHP author Ren Cedar Fuller!

How to write: Stop not writing. Keep your butt in the chair. Write really bad small sections of the whole—passages, moments, episodes, memories—til you have an incredibly shitty 1st draft. Then take out the boring parts, the lies and pretensions. Then write a better 2nd draft.

WRITING TIP FOR TODAY Sale racks at bookstores. I'm dead serious. Buy reference books when they are practically giving them away and build a little library. I cannot explain the difference between a book and the ENTIRE WEB. A good reference book will give you a dozen ideas in the first chapter.

Life is short. Write that novel. Paint that painting. Try new recipes. Learn black magic. Go into the forest at night. Summon a demon. Earn that demon's trust. Become best friends with it. Brag to everyone else about your new cool demon best friend. Knit that sweater.

If anyone’s looking for alternatives to GoodReads, I highly recommend StoryGraph. It’s owned by a black woman, and the platform is so much more accessible and easy to use.
