Late to an #eligibilitypost, but I have two #SFF stories for 2022 awards consideration:

Since 2022 is now most definitely over, here's what I published last year:

“The Stars Above Eos” in Fireside, March 2022 (1700 words). A short, sweet (sad?) science fiction love story about transcending death. Content notes for body modification and death.

I wrote two short stories in 2022 eligible for awards:

The Mandrake Loves the Olive, from Xenocultivars: Stories of Queer Growth, Speculatively Queer. (Available as ebook, print, and audiobook). It's a queerplatonic tale of yearing and Palestinian herbal folklore. It is nominated for the Pushcart Prize.

What the Ghouleh Said on Thursday of the Dead from Seize the Press Issue 5. Palestinian gothic horror. Finalist for a Brave New Weird award.

Links to follow.

New eligibility post! The only story I have out this year is a finalist for the Best New Weird Award, and is eligible for nomination for the Nebula.

Please take the time to read it, and nominate it if you so desire!

"What the Ghouleh Said on Thursday of the Dead" is a gothic horror piece inspired by Palestinian folklore (specifically, ghouls, and the Cult of Tombs).
