I no longer believe art can save the world, but I believe still that it can save me. So in the face of chaos, misinformation, hatred & ignorance, I'm going to make more art, experience more, share more, pay for more & publish more. I started this in darkness & it'll continue to be my light. 🖤🤍

I'm so thankful for you. For your presence here, your interest in Stanchion, in me as a person and an author, in my own book & in helping me give a platform in print for so many authors and creative people around the world. Stanchion continues to be my light in the darkness. 🖤🤍

Grateful for the support of indie bookstores here in San Diego. Dropped by the amazing Libélula and found a friend, @stanchion.bsky.social
For those of you who shop, support indie presses, support indie stores.

I love that my debut on the BBC is all about cats, an amazing city, and the joy of traveling with an open mind and heart.

I'm obsessively trying to keep the price of Stanchion Books and the magazine low to make the chapbooks, novellas, short story collections, and now novels, attainable to as many readers as possible, while still paying authors generous lump sum amounts... 1/2

I recognize the price may put it out of reach for some, but the 2026 will deliver a whopping 12 books (including Stanchion's 1st two novels), 4 exclusive gifts, advance PDFs & more.

I'd love to have you as a member. Here's a sneak peek at 4 Spring books!

A photograph from Stanchion Magazine history. There are shower beers and then there's a birdshit beer. Significantly less enjoyable, I'd guess.

"If I regret one thing, it's that I never managed to make you see how wonderful you are."

I cannot stop thinking about this line, this scene, this film. I cry every time.
I think it's the finest writing/the best written film I've ever seen.

Such a beautiful night celebrating the 10th anniversary of @thirtywestph.com! When I entered the indie lit world 5 years ago, Josh at Thirty West was 1 of the first people I saw as doing things the right way. He continues to inspire me to make Stanchion better for authors & readers.
