A shadow dressed in moonlight redder than mud

My poem "Female Figure of the Early Spedos Type, 1884–" has been accepted by GlitterShip. It's more about Cycladic figures than it is about Modigliani. I have never sold this market poetry before and I am pleased.

Aqueduct Press has recently released two collections I am really excited about: Gemma Files' Invocabulary and Gwynne Garfinkle's People Change. I get to kvell slightly because during my tenure at Strange Horizons I published poems now collected in both. I've also been enjoying Say Thanks (1998), the short film Files wrote and directed as part of On the Fly 3. It's a sixteen-minute two-hander with music sourced from Bill Laswell and Coil's "Kála" and an actor who reminds me of Anthony Perkins; it would fit just fine among the stories of Kissing Carrion (2003), my first introduction to her work.

Ruthanna Emrys has just started a Patreon. Rewards include juvenilia, recipes from Innsmouth and Tikanu, reports of the breeding practices of Outer Ones. Yeah, I have no idea, either. Become a patron and find out!

I have had a day that involved a lot of rewarding exertion and missing something I had been looking forward to, in about equal proportions. I am either going to watch a movie or collapse. [edit] Movie ran into technical issues; I guess this leaves collapse.
