\n
\n

An anthology of speculative fiction, Hope: The Thing With Feathers<\/em>, released on August 2! You can buy the anthology on Amazon to read my short story “What We Had Left.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Stories to bring hope in dark times. Inspired by Emily Dickinson\u2019s famous poem, these stories each have a feather motif and a hopeful positive ending.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“What We Had Left” explores grief, survival, and love at the end of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
