They say you can't live on books, but I think probably you can? Every year I do a silly photoshoot with all my books, and this year I even cooked up two new titles for you: Automatic Noodle (USA Today and indie bestseller!), and the anthology We Will Rise Again (coming 12/2!), which I co-edited with @infomocracy and @drkarenlord. Here's a feast for your brain! You can always order signed copies from @noevalleybooks and @greenapplebooks! Happy cozy season! #bookstagram #books #holidayseason

It's awards season! I couldn't be more proud of the two books I published last year. "Automatic Noodle" is my love letter to San Francisco's future. The anthology "We Will Rise Again" is a hopeful collaboration between me,
@infomocracy, @drkarenlord, & many brilliant authors.

I'm also incredibly grateful that I'm able to continue publishing weird, queer, hopeful science fiction about people fighting for worker rights and community sovereignty. Thank you so much to everyone who worked on these books, and to everyone who read them!!! 💖
