@faithallington.bsky.socialReposted by @beckyhalsey.bsky.socialThe Dermoid by @beckyhalsey.bsky.social is of my recent favorites, a sharp and powerful flash that weaves in body horror and womanhood and intergenerational trauma in a unique format!
@beckyhalsey.bsky.socialI have stories in this month’s issues of Small Wonders and Adventitious. Thank you Weightless Books for being a huge part of the independent publishing, speculative fiction world. 💓🙌

Join the fight against time cultists! All you need is a handful of anachronisms 💪

12. A super fucking fun tale from @beckyhalsey.bsky.social where a woman fights a time cult armed with anachronisms.
@beckyhalsey.bsky.socialAs I’m on a writing retreat amidst olive and pomegranate trees, I’m feeling this metaphor particularly strongly. Here I have my little seed of a story, I need to get it to grow-grow-grow… 🌱
@beckyhalsey.bsky.socialHardest thing I’ve had to do as a parent? Refill a beanbag chair 🤦♀️
@beckyhalsey.bsky.social“Like what are you into these days?” ME: Idk, ordering bathmats. But first searching for ‘best bathmats wirecutter’
