So sick to see I Love Boosters in Oakland.

Never manage to snap the entire lineup, but had the loveliest time at Just This Life readings + music hosted by Peter Bullen, with Christine No, Kar Johnson, Kim Addonizio, and more!

Happy Summerween! Reminder that I wrote a book for the loners and weirdos, very Are You Afraid of the Dark? but for grown-ups, and one story is even set at a cursed summer camp!

You won’t find traditional plot here. Instead, Manzano constructs her story using a mosaic of seemingly unconnected scenes that circle the same feeling & all lead to an incredibly resonant finale. I really love this work and am excited for you to read it! https://t.co/kq5Avk0ZzV

A (woefully!) incomplete capture of the phenomenal lineup at tonight’s inaugural Text Change, a new trans reading series hosted by June Martin at The Stud 🌟

Today's great read was "Come Back Wrong" by Izzy Wasserstein in @strangehorizons. Love the slicing wind, the bog body.

"...says welcome to womanhood
as if we’re defined
by our degradations. Yet I take affirmation
where I find it."

Summer Babylon Salon + pupusas otw = perfect Saturday night

As our talk got underway, it was standing room only for the launch of @cynthiasaysboo's Muñeca.

Honored that I got to be in conversation with Gómez about such a special book. Grab a copy from @PegasusBooks at link in comments.

H/t to @kristina_ten for the photo.

Celebrating MUÑECA by @cynthiasaysboo with @tamikathompson at @PegasusBooks! Talked about autonomy, disability, the East Bay in the sixties, and fairy tales. Whew, if ever a book sounded made for me, it’s this one.

[Kristina Ten | @kristinaten on Bluesky @kristina_ten]

Stoked to celebrate Vincent Chu’s NICE PLACES at Clio’s tonight, in conversation with Tomas Moniz. Oakland writers in Oakland!

[Cincinnati Review @CincinnReview]

Our beloved Lisa Ampleman is moving into a leadership role with our sister press, Acre Books. We're so excited for everything she will do for the press and can't wait to see what comes next for her. But...that means we're looking for a new Managing Editor! Application in thread.

[Kristina Ten | @kristinaten on Bluesky @kristina_ten]

Submitted a big thing + got happy news about another thing + these flowers are in my house now. Today is 🥰

[HAD @havehadhavehad]

Got a submission from someone who had Matthew Olzmann read this poem at their wedding. Probably one of my fave things we've published!

"...We each need
a partner posted on the roof, someone
with a crossbow watching high cornfields
for signs of movement."
