hey I’m gonna be at Rose City Comicon this year, September 6-8 at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland! The West Passage will be out by then, so I’ll be doing some signings and panels. More specific information coming soon!

Just a quick drawing of Mariko-sama facing Ishido proudly and taking over the spot of best character of this series while I wait anxiously for the next and last episode 😋

"I am no peasant to be trodden on. I am daughter of the great Lord Akeshi Jinsai. My line has been samurai for a thousand years, and I will never be captive, or hostage, or confined. I am free to go as I please..."

Have You Eaten? part 4 of 4 is live at Reactor! 

Read the end of the story (although really, there's no such thing as the end for this one) as Quan, Morrow, Harper, and Fen find themselves at the Rosemary Patch, meeting the family that made one of them into the person they've become. Featuring a recipe I've made without light, without power, and without running water. I hope you all love this one as much as I do.

If you haven’t heard, Have You Eaten? is my serialized novella about queer dirtbags on the run, searching for their missing best friend. It's the story of how they nurture and nourish each other with their limited emotional and material resources. The entire novella is out now at Reactor. Each installment of Have You Eaten? is accompanied by an original recipe from my recipe box. You'll also find stunning original art the incredible Shing Yin Khor. 

The thesis of this project, at the start, was "here's how community actually works," and in the process of making this thing happen, I've felt it in my bones. We show up for each other, and frustrate each other, and make things together, and let each other down, and mend each other's hearts. I owe such a debt of gratitude for the team at Reactor for putting this together; to my brilliant friend Shing Yin Khor; to all the friends and colleagues who supported this project as it was secretly in the works, enduring taste-tests, Ship-of-Theseus questions about changing recipes in dire circumstances, and questions about the geography of Chicago. Thank you to everyone who listened and cared and showed up, and to everyone who forgave me when I was losing my mind in the process of writing it, and to everyone who made it better by touching it. I am so, so proud of what we made together.

✨🦋 COVER REVEAL 🦋✨

I'm delighted to finally share the cover of my upcoming MG graphic novel—THE FIRELIGHT APPRENTICE!

In a city powered by magic and still recovering from a bloody war, Ada is concerned about her younger sister Safi’s developing powers. She understands that Safi could learn how to control her magic under the apprenticeship of a king's magician. But with the memories of war still fresh, Ada is conflicted by this prospect—despite her knowing that she can’t keep Safi safely at home with the threat of deadly, power-thieving liches prowling the kingdom.  When a traveling group of magicians comes to the city to perform, they immediately recognize Safi’s talents and offer to take her on as an apprentice. Safi is thrilled about her new adventure—even if that means leaving behind Ada and their sickly father. And Ada is right to worry about her sister, for there may be monsters hiding behind friendly faces…
