Hello! I have been hiding in an isolation hole for a long time, but I am finally starting to feel better enough to emerge! Not to get together with people in person, of course, but here are some places you can find me:
CIC Guided Writing — 2pm Eastern US time, Tuesday, May 5th, 2020
This is part of the CIC’s Virtual Arts Week, and it’s free to attend! You can register here, and come for an hour long guided writing session on the theme of transformation. This is going to be a fun and generative session, not based on critique. I’d love to see you there!

Book Discussion on the Spectology Podcast
Adrian and Matt, the hosts of Spectology, invited me to discuss a book with them. I chose The Tea Master and the Detective by Aliette de Bodard, which is a Sherlock Holmesian mystery space opera story with Vietnamese cultural elements. It was a lot of fun to read and discuss! Here’s the pre-read episode where we talk about Aliette and our anticipation of the book, and here’s the post-read episode where we discuss the book after having read it. The post-read is full of spoilers about the book, so I recommend buying and reading the book before listening to that second episode. It’s a fun book, and we all enjoyed it!
