Well then!
My @sauutiverse.bsky.social novella DESCENT is a finalist for the best novella Ignyte Award!
The Ignytes mean a lot to me because of what they represent. Community, care, consideration. 🙏🏾
I'm thrilled to share the spotlight with so many excellent authors (hi again @amalelmohtar.com!)
The award for Best Short Non-fiction goes to:
Eugen Bacon for Spec Fic and the Politics of Identity: Finding the Self in Other
My current read! Read the first quarter in one day (which is a lot for me).
