I have a new poem out in @UncannyMagazine today! It’s my first new poem of the year. “Butterfly Effect” is inspired by all the unfinished stories and all the things I wish we could take back. uncannymagazine.com/article/…

Butterfly Effect - Uncanny Magazine

  I always liked this idea: how we’d walk to the end of the subway tunnel and there’d be a door where everyone was waiting on the other side with all the things we’d ever lost.   I always liked how...

Our Issue 30 had a lot of stories and poems about relationships. The one between Aelegan and the sun she wants to eat, in "Eating the Sun" by @Beth_Goder, may involve unusual beings, but their experience of loneliness is universal. smallwondersmag.com/piece/ea…

Eating the Sun - Small Wonders

The rest of her broodmates had already left for ascension. She needed fuel for the journey. She needed to eat the sun.

If you're thinking about using gen-AI to "write" books, this 🧵 is for you. I’m a highly experienced editor who’s been in the biz a long time. Recently I’ve had manuscripts come to me where the author has used gen-AI – not for writing, I’ve been assured, but for

“Are you the Memory Technician?” The woman points to the neon sign. “Could you extract three memories for me?”

ICYMI, I made a playlist of Johnny Cash songs about death, put it on repeat, and then wrote this story about the multiverse and a really bad situationship. 🤠 🪐

NEW STORY DAY! ✨ “Lucinda Espinosa’s Twenty-Seventh Death” is the strange queer story of my heart, my ultimate “write what you want to read” story. A multiverse story, sort of. A space western, sort of. But mostly it’s a love story, and I hope you love it too. 🔗 in thread!

I’m not kidding: those who delegate all their writing, thinking and creative expression to machines are going to wake up one day and discover that they can no longer write or think. You need to make your own art. You need to keep your brain working. You need to stay human.

the internet was better when it was on a computer in your house and didn't consume our whole lives. time passed more slowly before there were endless distractions. you had space to read, space to think, space to grow bored and create something.

Sat with Ted Chiang at @NeurIPSConf lunch ytd & someone in AI brought up democratizing art-making. It was a candid chat so I was like, hey, can I just say something?—I really hate the word "democratize" used this way. Just say "automating art-making." It’s more accurate. 1/

Sometimes it feels like you’ll never get the spark to write again, but then all it takes is the tiniest thing: a walk through an unfamiliar street, a passage from a favorite book, a sudden rain, and you might find yourself inspired again. The words will find a way back to you.
