Here it is! The SFF anthology I’ve been yapping about. The theme of this anthology is Belonging, and it features 12 diverse authors: female, queer, BIPOC, trans, and more.
Also, you can finally meet Kat, my sarcastic time-traveling alien shifter, in my story This is the Worst Timeline.

Writer's Digest May/June 2026 Cover Reveal

Presenting the May/June 2026 issue of Writer's Digest, including the 101 Best Websites for Writers and an interview with Mike Chen.

Writer's Digest
Heute ist der #coverreveal für die Anthologie "int:elegance - Zukünfte von Ästhetik und KI". Darin ist auch ein Text von mir enthalten 😊 Ich freue mich schon sehr auf die anderen Texte zu diesem wichtigen Thema. VÖ ist am 30.4.

📄 Klappentext

Wird KI den Menschen in der Kunst ersetzen?
Welche Zukunft hat menschengemachte Kunst noch?

Diesen Fragen gehen die Geschichten der Anthologie nach. Von gegenwärtigen Problemen über dystopische Zustände bis zur interstellaren Raumfahrt - die imaginäre Zeitreise überrascht mit Lösungen, neuen Schwierigkeiten und unerwarteten Verbündeten.

»Ich will nicht die Prompts schreiben, sondern die ganze Geschichte.«
(Johanna Brenne: Die Feder)

»Stell dir eine Tasse Kaffee vor. Stell dir vor, wie sie kippt und der Kaffee sich verschüttet. Der Mensch malt die Flecken. Die KI schöpft den Kaffee zurück und malt die gefüllte Tasse. Aber sie ist anders gefüllt als vorher. Irgendetwas … stimmt einfach nicht.«
(Roff Boff: Die Schönheit von Kaffeeflecken)

♥ The Hitchhiker's Guide to Daddy's Heart ♥


Alfie survives getting kicked out with nothing but stubborn joy, a smart mouth, and a stuffed bear he refuses to abandon.
Crowe survives by never caring about anything—or anyone—long enough to lose it.
So when their worlds collide, it’s a disaster waiting to happen.
Crowe knows better than to pick Alfie up.
Knows better than to touch him.
Definitely knows better than to keep him.
He does it anyway.
One reckless night later, Crowe disappears—because that’s what he does best.
Too bad Alfie isn’t the kind of problem you can leave behind.
Now he’s chasing a man who doesn’t want to be found, diving headfirst into a world that bites back, and calling someone “Daddy” who’s convinced he’ll only ever break what he touches.
Spoiler: Alfie doesn’t scare easily.
Crowe should.

“The Guardian of Couture” Teaser Promo, Part One

Couture Magazine isn’t just a fashion bible — it’s a battleground. Behind the glossy covers and celebrity spreads lies a world where interns are tested beyond coffee runs and copy machines. From clogged toilets to 24/7 on-call chaos, survival means shedding illusions and stepping into the fire.

But the real test? The Primal Premiere. That’s when the staff — those impossibly beautiful, retro-glasses-wearing editors — reveal their true selves. And if you’re not ready for what’s underneath, you’re not ready for Couture.

I should know. I lived it.

My name is Alcide Lancaster. I survived the summer internship that changed everything — spandex, secrets, Fashion Week madness, and the September Issue. I uncovered a legacy my grandparents once protected, one my family rejected. But I embraced it, with allies, love, and legends by my side.

This is my story.


You’ll never forget the first time.
Exclusively on Wattpad, hitting the runway May 2026. Don’t miss it!
