Thank you @CourtlandAvenue and @DoricLiterary for giving “Overdue” a home! 🚗 💻 ⚕️
At last: “Overdue” by @Dango_Ramen!
Although it has self-driving cars, a sperm bank that only accepts donations from Nobel laureates, & an XGBoost-based algorithm, this award-winning story is about a young couple facing a potential breast cancer diagnosis.

I have a new sci-fi story in @NatureFutures! As dystopian as it gets…or is it? 😄
nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
This slum might seem a strange place to hunt for a baby, but prospective parents are prepared to pay for a child with the right genes. We just have to find them. But what we offer in return — well, it’s life changing. Truly.

My entire feed has suddenly become AI news...all because I read ONE post about OpenAI and its doomed future. How do I turn this back into literary stuff 😭

🧵 A work-in-progress thread tracking some short form writing I did prepartum & postpartum. Fun thing about this period: I only had/have a few minutes to write before a life interruption. How this impacts creative output? I'll revisit this thread 18 years later 😝

Hooray @andrewbertaina! Jason (although no longer on Twitter) and I loved this piece!
Really thrilled to see, The Shape of Things, will be included in the Best Microfiction of 2026 as chosen by Diane Seuss!
Special thanks to the Heavy Feather Review for publishing it and to my 804 retreat friends who I wrote this for after a prompt :).

I have a short essay out in
@Sunlight_Press. I wrote this only a few months back, but those months feel like years. 😆

Final task of 2025: haphazardly drive this story to end.
A few thousand words later: ending is indeed a train wreck. ✅
