This evening's mail delivered my contributor's copy of Dreams from the Witch House: Female Voices of Lovecraftian Horror, edited by Lynne Jamneck. It's a beautiful trade paperback with full-page illustrations and it includes my novelette "All Our Salt-Bottled Hearts."
I've written a little about this story before: my fish people will be intersectional or they will be bullshit. I put a lot of my sea-longing into it. A lot of my sea-bitterness, too: I jumped into the winter sea when I was fourteen or fifteen months old, but I didn't change then or any time after. I suppose I keep hoping. Some of the characters feel the same way.
I haven't yet been to the sea this summer. Thank you for the reminder, universe.
