shameless self-promotion

This month we have a new issue of Fuckit, featuring my story, “And the Forest Sings of Secrets and the Dead.” This one’s a fun one. The theme for this issue is “How to Counter a Culture,” and I have always been weirdly fascinated with Puritans. Like many a young American lass, I went throughContinue reading “shameless self-promotion”

Shameless Self-Promotion!

Fuckit #10 (The Burnout is Real) is out and includes a short story by me, called “Two Old Ladies In a School Gym Lockup,” which title made the lovely husband look at me with That Look and say, “You’re pretty proud of that one, aren’t you?” Indeed, I am. Featuring a Glee reference and cameoContinue reading “Shameless Self-Promotion!”

Shameless self-promotion!

Fuckit vol 9, “Actual Fucking Things” is out, and for this one I made some visual art. I do not know why this one felt like the end of something, but it did. (It’s not; I have made a promise to myself to submit to this ‘zine every issue unless something catastrophic happens, and sinceContinue reading “Shameless self-promotion!”

It’s that time again! Issue # 8 of FUCKIT is out, and this issue includes a Teachout story for your reading pleasure! “The Bloodhound’s Sister Meets the Void” is a bit weird. For one, it’s Gwen’s POV, which rarely happens (these stories are very much about both girls, but the POV is tight 3rd toContinue reading “shameless self-promotion”

Shameless self-promotion and other stuff

So, first of all, I have TWO pieces in the 6th volume of FUCKIT: a ‘zine. This issue’s theme is “Death to Cringe,” and I am quite excited to be a part of that. Those of you who enjoyed “There are No Lost Worlds” might be interested in “A (Lovely) Companion Piece,” wherein we learnContinue reading “Shameless self-promotion and other stuff”

Shameless self-promotion and hello, not dead

So I totally spaced on promoting the November issue of Fuckit, which contains “The Modern Eurydice: to Orpheus in the Autumn of the Plague Year,” so that came out. I got a little distracted by … I dunno, some political event. No, the other one. No, no–the one that happened right around the time theContinue reading “Shameless self-promotion and hello, not dead”

Shameless self-promotion!

It’s pub day for Stories We Tell After Midnight 2!  You can find my story, “Primary Manifestations” in this anthology of creepy, spooky stories. *** “Primary Manifestations” is a haunted house story.  I love haunted houses.  You can probably tell, as I’ve written, what, three stories now that involve them (four if you count theContinue reading “Shameless self-promotion!”

You can find my untitled internet quiz parody in Fuckit issue 3, Vote, Motherfucker, Vote! Now, far be it from me to use that kind of vulgarity … … wait, hang on, I think Scott may have collapsed … Oh.  No.  He’s just on the floor laughing.  What’s that, honey?  Oh.  I’m being told IContinue reading “shameless self-promotion”

quarantine blogging: another poem

Another poem from the IG reading … This one came about because our friend Ulrica messaged me about sending Scott a care package from Sweden, and she said, “The world as we know it is gone. Some of us understand that already, others need more time for it to sink in … So let’s justContinue reading “quarantine blogging: another poem”

quarantine blogging: a poem

This is one of the poems I read during my IG reading back in Year 5 of Quarantine. I wrote this for a prompt: “Build the Wall/All Walls Fall.”    What I Know About Walls I know that there is something that does not love them. Walls are made, of stone or wood or rolesContinue reading “quarantine blogging: a poem”
