A glimpse at the way I plan my work and tasks ahead of time. I admit I'm a bit nerdy about this. buff.ly/3LtFky3

I made stained-glass cookies a few years ago and they were so much work I vowed never to do it again. But then the kids kept begging me. And I told them they had to be very helpful. Last afternoon was very sweet when all four of us joined in to finish off the cookie creation.

So honored that my short story "Remembrance in Cerulean" will appear in this Fernwood Press Palestinian SFF anthology! (Sept 2024) #Palestine

I really like this shift for Apex Magazine's slush reading!
