I’m currently reading the new book from @carolinehagood.bsky.social: “Death and Other Speculative Fictions.” Absolutely love the short burst prose poems, which are layered with wit & emotional depth, & maneuver the reading experience through space & time in intriguing, heartfelt, & fascinating ways.

"What happens to the letters after they’re hauled off, after we forget how to speak them? Will our tongues mutate, the phrases emigrating to other countries where they can still be said? We plan to write about it but how to do so without language?" 🖤 @carolinehagood.bsky.social

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

As the inevitable writing rejections come in, I will be reading this review of my new book, Death and Other Speculative Fictions, (from a magazine I look to for all sci-fi/spec fic issues, Locus Magazine) to remind myself to keep on writing.

I love this page—one of the final pages in Lauren Elkin's Scaffolding. The time it takes to make something, the places that seep or pour themselves into the made thing. (And I love this book.) @laurenelkin.bsky.social

I was captivated by “Death and Other Speculative Fictions” by @carolinehagood.bsky.social. The slim yet weighty collection recounts the death of Hagood's father and examines her grief, and resolve, through the lens of speculative fiction. It's an affecting, emotive, visceral read. #books #booksky
