And his voice became like a brook, as clear and as pure as water

Good morning! Three totally disparate things:

1. I can now announce that my short story "The Face of the Waters" has been accepted for reprint by Transcendent 4: The Year's Best Transgender Fiction, edited by Bogi Takács (Lethe Press). Look at that cover! Look at that table of contents! My contribution was originally published in Forget the Sleepless Shores (2018); it was written for [personal profile] ashlyme who had had a disappointing experience with a narrative of canals and rain. I feel it was also a little influenced by recent exposure to Sapphire & Steel (1979–82), whose second three serials I never seem to have reviewed. I am honored to have it included in this anthology.

2. The Flick Filosopher is reporting trouble with e-mail notification of her posts at Patreon. Since Patreon is trying to track the bug: did everyone here who is a patron of mine (thank you!) and has their account set to receive notifications of my posts get one for this morning's review? [edit] The answers appear to be yes and I appreciate the data. I am paranoid about something going wrong with Patreon.

3. I find this story of flag-burning at an anti-KKK rally really upsetting: "It's like a meat-world version of the Jewish impersonators Yair Rosenberg used to bust." We're going to need a bigger golem.

Once more to the doctor's, dear friends. Last night's concert was fun.
