New year seems like a good time to start fresh, so I'm signing off Twitter/X and moving to Bluesky. You can find me at the same handle. I've tried to rebuild thing over there and follow mutuals, but might've missed a few. I'll follow back any reconnections though.

The Paris Review mourns the loss of John Barth (1930-2024). In memory of his life and work, we’ve unlocked his Art of Fiction interview with George Plimpton from our archive.

A close-to-my-heart piece published in @3ammagazine and the treat of being edited by the excellent @danieldaviswood 🍀 thank you thank you!
Like apparently almost everyone, I've not been much on this site (whatever it's called) throughout 2023. But I've also had the enormous privilege of editing fiction for @3ammagazine since the start of the year and there's a lot of work over there that deserves its readers...
For something closer to surrealism, but no less insidious, @ZoeMeager's 'Local Bones' is the one to check out—a microfiction, fresh this week from Aotearoa, with imagery to haunt your dreams: 3ammagazine.com/3am/local-bo…
And then if you want to laugh off the insidiousness with a bit of slapstick absurdism—of the bloody kind, true carnage—check out 'Cake Genius' from @mickconley, a timely treat for all would-be Star Bakers now that #GBBO is back on the air: 3ammagazine.com/3am/cake-gen…
Anyway, if you've gotten this far in the thread, you'll be among the first to know: @3ammagazine fiction submissions will re-open in early December, so get your work ready for that window. And browse through all of the above to get a sense of what I've enjoyed reading this year.
