1. Arrived last night in my inbox: contributor's copies of Uncanny Magazine #1, containing my poem "The Whalemaid, Singing." It is a grand slam of a first issue. Contributors include Amal El-Mohtar, Max Gladstone, Maria Dahvana Headley, Christopher Barzak, Neil Gaiman, Jay Lake, and that's not even getting into the nonfiction. Front cover by Galen Dara, showcasing space unicorns. The first half of the issue goes live tomorrow, following a first-Tuesday-of-the-month model; my poem will become available online in December along with the rest of the second half. If you want to read it before then, subscribe! It was written after a whale watch in July.
2. Now online: the eleventh issue of Stone Telling. I don't have any work in it, because it's all new voices and it's brilliant. I am especially enjoying Saira Ali's "I do not know your ἀλφάβητος," M Sereno's "The Exile, i.," Kythryne Aisling's "Nothing Writes to Disk," and Ruth Jenkins' "Scales," but then I found myself beginning to list the entire table of contents, so you might as well go and read them for yourself in order.

asakiyume: Leonora Carrington's Myth of 1,000 Eyes (c. 1950). I love Carrington's work, but I'd never seen this one, like a night-visiting familiar. It's beautiful. It looks like the best elements of a cat, a fox, a ferret, and a nudibranch.
