Friends!

I'm Naz and I write horror/spec/literary fic often emphasizing diaspora & Armenian characters.

36 stories published with more slated at Deadlands, Pleiades, Crow & Cross Keys, a TBA anthology, & elsewhere.

Working on my debut novel!

Would you please share and help me find the folks?

I was 6 when I saw Casper in theatres. My son is 6 and we’re off to see Casper in theatres. What a trip.

This is so, so well deserved. Congrats to the Silk and Sinew team, to everyone on the list, and also special congrats and shoutout to @thomasha.bsky.social for his recognition on this list, too! Silk and Sinew and Uncertain Sons are two of the best books I read this year.
