Oh hey! I published two short stories in 2024, and you can nominate them for things! They're even both free to read online.

Umbrella Luck (Issues in Earth Science): https://earthscienceissues.net/fiction_for_the_classroom

Drinking Down the Salt (Saturday Evening Post):
https://www.saturdayeveningpost.com/2024/10/drinking-down-the-salt/

Both are character-focused spec fic with environmental themes. Umbrella Luck is nominally hopepunk sci-fi while Salt is darker fantasy (it's actually pretty dismal if you read between the lines).

This is my very late #AwardsEligibility post!

Tantie Merle and the Farmhand 4200 (6000+ words) was in Uncanny Magazine's Jul/Aug 2023 Issue 53. It's about an old woman, a helpful bot & a very stubborn goat.

In Nov, The Sunday Morning Transport published Mid-Earth Removals Limited (3000+ words) about a single mom, a very lost minion of the Dark Lord & (eventually) a dragon.

Hey everyone, it's furry awards season and my book is eligible for nomination.
