It’s time for Augur to become a press. We’ve waited long enough. We need a new CanSpec publisher. I want to find delicious book-length projects. It won’t be immediate—set up will be at least a year. But I think it’s finally time.

My first published poem "Graveyard Orbits" appeared in @augurmag.bsky.social, Issue 5.2 in November 2022. It's a small poem about grief and space funerary rites: "Few of us remember funeral rites beyond/ leaving rings of Loved Ones around moons". Grab a copy here: www.augurmag.com

I like this place much better than the artist formerly known as Twitter but augur continues to do better there 😱 In 2024, my wish is all of writers and readers decide on one single main platform (that does not require me to produce video content regularly)

i had the absolute pleasure & privilege of working with E.C. Dorgan on "Winter Love" AND with @straith.bsky.social on "How to Breathe Water" in augur's latest issue, out this week!! JUST in these two pieces you'll find themes of identity & becoming, transhumanism and pretending-to-be-humans

I was lucky to work with Alyssa Donnelly in this issue on her Gumiho 🦊✨ story "June in Winter" that will absorb you into its pores, line by line. The overall joy, suspense, creativity, and atmospheric feels in 6.2, The Vast Fantastic, are astounding. Don't miss this magic.💜
