“PET is tender, a deftly woven spell that asks us what it means to be safe; what it means to be saved; what it means to identify a monster, and what it takes to rid ourselves of all monsters.” — Mariana Calderon http://akwaeke.com/pet

Popping back to say thank you for all the kind words!

Having my work recognized within the speculative fiction community has long been a DREAM of mine—it's my favorite genre and I can't wait to sink my teeth into the fantasy books on my to-write list! #OtherwiseAward1 odpowiedź 0 podanych dalej 5 polubionychPokaż ten wątek
Re: FRESHWATER's genre, I think @bogiperson said it best—"FRESHWATER is speculative only so far as real life can be called such; which is, of course, considerably." + "[I] prefer to err on the side of inclusion if this means I can recommend a work to new readers."
