Anyway dyk the prolific @genni.bsky.social has at least 3 books out in 2026! Black Dingo: Short Stories (October, Flame Tree Collections); Crimson in Quietus (September, @meerkatpress.bsky.social); and Muntu (May, @badhandbooks.bsky.social).

Covers of the three books mentioned in the post. Black Dingo is mostly green with gold concentric circles; Crimson in Quietus has a Black woman in futuristic clothing and with long curly hair in the foreground, looking to her right; Muntu is stark red and black with either flames or smoke and two hands in silhouette on either side.

Vanessa Fogg reviews new work by @genni.bsky.social: “CRIMSON IN QUIETUS depicts love and rela-tionships in a variety of forms, and depicts platonic love as not lesser than romantic.”

The only place I love more than the library is the museum, so I am excited for this event at Mass MOCA happening Sunday October 4 at 12noon.

Loved this review of aNother Nemesis at the Science Fiction & Poetry Association!

"Humor, satire, and honesty pervade the poems ... An interesting and thought-provoking collection."

Two exciting announcements for THE LIBRARY OF THE UNDEAD! The anthology proudly welcomes "Fire Fall on Them" by the wonderful @genni.bsky.social, and "Learning to Fly" by @gordrollo.bsky.social (the original would not have existed without him, and so herein he will forever be entombed).
