The #Wicker2026 man is still humanoid so not *technically* NYGEL material, but every opportunity to wrangle a mainstream audience closer to weird monsterfuckery is a win 💦
#QueerWriters Pretty dope! I got my *very first* acceptance from a magazine (@nygelmag.bsky.social) which is a HUGE deal to me and I'm being frankly feral about it. It's not even just the acceptance, but me managing to kill the beast of shame and defeatism within me and apply in the first place 😁

Yesterday, my co-author @thepaintedlion.bsky.social received cash from a book seller in exchange for books. We've sold over 1000 copies, but this physical interaction -- we give you the book we wrote, you give us dollar bills-- was a first. Felt different.
