Back in March, I read my haunted-tree story "The Last Trench" for Strong Women Strange Worlds. The video recording is now available. I'm the first reader of the event. If you don't already know about this reading series, check it out! It's fantastic. https://youtu.be/bRbj4CclmPQ #AuthorsOnMastodon #AuthorsOfMastodon #IndigenousCreatives #GhostStory #ShortStory #CanLit #SpeculativeFiction

The Canadian Science Fiction and Fantasy Association now has Aurora Award voting packages available for members. My poem "Angakkuq" is a finalist, and I'd love for you to read it. Voting for it would be a delicious surprise.
You can access all the wonderful novels, poetry, short stories, illustrations, etc. which made the finals for only ten bucks Canadian. A bargain, for sure. And you don't even need to be an author to get membership. Money supports Canadian speculative authors and illustrators. https://www.csffa.ca/ #CanLit #WritingCommunity #AuroraAward #SpeculativeFiction #SpeculativePoetry #PoetryCommunity #IndigenousCreatives
