I can't believe this year is over. I can't believe this year. I maintained my website and my presence on AO3 and wrote new work and was kept too much from sleep and it does not feel like twelve months either way.

I published two new pieces of fiction this year, both of importance to me:

"Twice Every Day Returning" in Uncanny Magazine #61, November 2024.
"Hyperboloids of Wondrous Light" in Not One of Us #81, December 2024.

Some new poetry, the same:

"Hagstone" in Not One of Us #78, March 2024.
"Penis Secrets of the Anunnaki" in Nightmare Magazine #141, June 2024.
"The Same Fur Coat" in Strange Horizons 8/5/24 , August 2024.
"Fair Exchange" in Not One of Us #80, September 2024.
"A Long Time Afterward" in Nightmare Magazine #144, September 2024.
"Amitruq Nekyia" in Strange Horizons 10/7/24, October 2024.
"Sheela-na-Gig" in Weird Fiction Quarterly Fall 2024: Masquerade, November 2024.

A couple of meaningful reprints:

"The Choices of Foxes" in All in Among the Briars: An Anthology of Mythic Wonder (ed. Julia Rios), June 2024.
"Sheela-na-Gig" in Weird Fiction Quarterly: Holiday 2024, December 2024.

I wrote one piece of fanfiction that made it as far as AO3 and left the rest of the fills in place:

"One More Game of Chivalry" (The File on Thelma Jordon), January 2024.

I cannot say at the end of this year that we are all still here: we lost Autolycus. But you must say that Alexander lives and reigns or his siren-sister will wreck your sailing and Hestia was sharing slices of lox with me earlier this evening and I want the rest of us to stay that way. Happy New Year. A healthy, a safe one. Mir zaynen af tselokhes.
