There's a French translation of Little Fish and it's finally coming out next month.
Daniel Grenier, Pascal Raud, Amélia Fiset, I'm so grateful to you all for coming out the other side of translating this and putting it into the world. I'm so grateful to Hamac for being willing to take a chance on this sad desperate little book that I have cared about like few things in my life. I'm grateful to Sybil Lamb for letting us use this illustration for the cover, which fits like few other things, for Reasons. Thank you and merci. 💜

Hey Windsor friends, I'm doing a reading Tuesday with Sybil Lamb for Cat Fitzpatrick's beautiful fucking book about love (not kidding) called THE DINNER PARTY (which I am a character in, also not kidding). Come hang at @biblioasis_bookshop ! Or come drink after at Dominion House Tavern (The DH)! Which is not on Wyandotte but you all know this/don't worry I already called out @7storiespress on Bluesky so we can all grow and heal 🙏
I haven't done a reading-reading in so long, seems like forever. I've finished a new book though (a draft, anyway) and I guess I'm gonna read from it.

I wanted the world to come, you'll give it time
Blooming like the shadows upon you, I drowned beside
Floating on the water to show me your softer side
Everything is spinning beneath 'til it falls like glass
Just give it time
Now close your eyes
