Three new publications have squeaked by just before the end of 2024:
Today, my poem "Angakkuq" was published ahead of schedule by On Spec Magazine.
A couple of weeks ago, my short story "Sirens Don't Sing Underwater" was published by Moonlit Getaway.
Also, my poem "The Stolen Language of My Ancestors" was published in Heart, Hope and Land: Reclaiming Indigenous Voices, IHRAM 2024 Quarterly Literary Magazine.
That brings me to a total of twenty-six poems, essays, short stories, and plays published by twenty-two publishers this year. My story "Wolf Mother" was nominated by Augur Magazine for the Aurora Award. My essay "Saddles in the Kitchen" was nominated for the Pushcart Prize.
I received a microgrant from Pat the Dog and a grant from Waterloo Arts Fund to continue my work as a short story writer. I am grateful for their support.
An early version of my essay "Monsters" was shortlisted for the Dreaming into Collective Futures contest by Textile Magazine. My poetry collection Poemuit was a finalist for the Kelsey Street Press QTBIPOC Prize. My short story "The Tupilaq" came in third place for the Iridescence Awards. I received a scholarship for GrubStreet’s Novel Immersive for LGBTQ+ Writers. I won second place in LSUA's 2024 Flash Fiction contest for “The Yolk of the Moon” and was shortlisted for “The Lupercal.” I was longlisted for Speculative Literature Foundation’s Diverse Writers/Diverse Worlds Grant. And I was longlisted in The Forge Flash Fiction Competition for “The Bird Husband.”
I appeared on two podcasts: Readers Delight and Write Publish and Shine.
I had public performances/readings at Waterloo Bookfest, the Cabbagetown Festival, Elmira Multicultural Festival, the Mikhko-Kiskisiwin launch at Idea Exchange in Cambridge, and at Flights of Foundry where I was also a panelist on folklore of the world.
By request of a horror anthology editor, I'm currently in the midst of revising my short story "All That Came From Our Lips Were Lilies." Here's hoping she likes it.
I'm also in talks with an editor putting out an anthology of fiction and science writing. We'll see if anything should come of that.
I've applied for a few residencies and writing intensives next year, and am still waiting to hear back if I receive any of them. I've also entered several other contests and am waiting to hear back if I'm longlisted for any of them.
The wonderful Richard Van Camp requested I send him my short story "Hartley and the Woodstove" and the follow-up novella "The Temperance Ridge Runaways." I'm thrilled he wants to read them, and can't wait to hear what he thinks of them.
I already have nine stories and poems scheduled to be published in 2025. I don't see how I can beat what I've accomplished this year, but I'm gonna give it the old college try.
