January 16th, 2026 What’s crazy to me is that Jesus Christ was killed by the state for embodying and promoting such traitorous and terroristic behaviors as loving thy neighbor, no matter who that neighbor is. What’s crazy to me is I have spent my whole life listening to people tell me that they needed theirContinue reading “Maybe I’m Crazy”

And you know we’re on each other’s team
January 10th, 2026 I wrote something insane last night. Like, the kind of essay that could cost me my job, lose me hundreds of followers, inspire wellness checks. It was unhinged, full of rage and despair, my words as vindictive and cutting as a pair of scissors laced with cyanide. It was actually pretty fuckingContinue reading “And you know we’re on each other’s team”
Best of 2025
December 30th, 2025 It’s that time again to list my favorite things of the year! (Wait, nobody asked? I don’t care. Everyone loves lists.) I was able to choose a top ten in every medium except television, which got thirteen picks and I could not reduce it any further (for real, I tried and itContinue reading “Best of 2025”
One Star
November 21st, 2025 My new book got a one star rating. Why that’s kind of a relief. (Plus: notes on self-selection and I’ll see you at the Gary’s Sip & Shop tomorrow!)
Twin Cities Con 2025
November 9th, 2025 Wow. I know I go on and on about how much I adore this community, but it’s only because this community has so much to adore. What a surprising and delightful, thrilling and exhausting weekend. My eyes, mind and nervous system are shut down for repairs as I type this letter toContinue reading “Twin Cities Con 2025”
Notes on an Island
October 25th, 2025 Signed paperback editions of Maple Island have been shipped to everyone who loves me the most, who ordered the book sight unseen during the presale, some of whom have been supporting me and my art for decades (go ahead and brag in the comments how long you’ve been here). I would likeContinue reading “Notes on an Island”
Fallcon 2025
October 11th, 2025 “I love this community so much.” I lost count of how many times I heard people say this over the weekend, but what’s one more: I love this community so much. Thank you for having lunch with me, for inventing candy tea with me, for talking Alien and Dune and Tron withContinue reading “Fallcon 2025”
SpringCon 2025
June 7th, 2025 Another SpringCon is in the books and I just wanted to give my gratitude to all the organizers, volunteers, attendees, and my fellow writers, artists, and vendors. You all are the best and I’m not just saying that; you’re kind, inspiring, and annoyingly talented. I took basically no photos today and that’sContinue reading “SpringCon 2025”
Weirdos Art Show!
May 10th, 2025 All my love to everyone who came to the Weirdos Art Show today. I had a lovely time. As an artist, I’ve always asked myself: could I fill a room? I was pleasantly surprised by the answers I found. I appreciate the shared coffee, baked goods and excellent conversation, and if weContinue reading “Weirdos Art Show!”
