I did an unboxing video because that’s a thing you do. Everyone likes watching people open their mail, right?

My novella is coming out from Split/Lip Press on February 10! @splitlippress.com

It's a dreary day. I needed to feel something good. Then mail came. This gorgeous collection of @marchxness.bsky.social essays from all the tournaments, including my first-round loss in March Faxness, my very first time playing.

Preorders help small presses and authors tremendously but that’s not why they’re important on a soul level. Preorders matter because they’re acts of faith. You trust the order will come through, the book will be good, which means something in this low-trust society we’re trapped in.
