I have just signed a contract with Double Dragon Press to publish my third novel, Ghostkin, in 2018.

The Kickstarter for Mother, Maiden, Crone: Fantastical Trans Femmes has just launched. It's been going less than a day and it's already 10% funded.

It's got stories by some excellent writers including Casey Plett (A Safe Girl to Love  and Meanwhile, Elsewhere) and Lilah Sturges (Jack of Fables and Lumberjanes) and me!

Additionally, if anyone pledges, I will give you an ebook copy of either The Long Sleep, Down Among the Yla or Stories From the Corner of the Room.

Please do pledge to support it. It looks like it's going to be an excellent book and so worth reading.
