I finally decided just to post this sucker. I was originally waiting for a story and an essay to become available online, but I’ll just update this post when they do.
This year has been a bit of a rollercoaster, both in writing and in life, with some really cool moments, experiences, and opportunities, as well as some really low ones where I seriously questioned if all the work I was doing was worth it.
I think it is worth it. But I’ve also cut back on social media and have been trying to spend more time with friends and outdoors.
Which is all to say, I wrote some things this year that I probably haven’t talked about enough online. Some of which I’m very proud of, including a few essays, which I’ve been writing more of lately and have been enjoying.
So, if you’re still with me and are reading for the Nebulas, Hugos, or just want to check out more of what I published this year, here’s what I got:
