How?
How do we keep going? How do we put one foot in front of the other, over and over, moving toward an unnamed goal that somehow has a million hopeful and beautiful inner images to illustrate it on our internal vision board even though we can never fully pin it down? How can we keep that focus when the world is burning all around us? We seem doomed to keep repeating the patterns of the past, the…
The Biggest Person in the Room
But if she was nervous, then it was up to him to make her feel more secure, right? That was what Grum always told him. “When you’re the biggest person in the room, you have to put the smaller ones at ease. Otherwise you’ll always be a threat, and you can’t trust anything a threatened person says or does as being true.”[Ettir, from the upcoming Eleriannan novel] I am not a big person. Okay, let…
The Big Purge of 2026
Operation: De-Google-Fy! So it’s come to this; the state of enshittification has become so entrenched that even Google can’t just do the job it was made to do without turning to an AI summary-bot to break a search into tiny nuggets of almost-info that feels designed to discourage deep dives or inspire curiosity. And worse, the last update made it so Chrome has eaten up all the space in my…
My notes for Fatphobia in SFF
Hi friends! You’re probably reading this after attending the Fatphobia in SFF panel at Balticon 60. Or maybe you stumbled onto this post while doing research about the subject. I wanted to provide my notes from the event in a simple post for those who want more context, thinking material, or further reading. I’m just simply dropping this in for now and will fancy it up later. The most important…
Fun facts: the part of the London Marathon she joined is a fully integrated non competitive event. All the medals issued are participation awards. It isn't meaningfully ranked or scored. Anyone who wants to participate can. The coverage given this event and its placement is equivalent to the newspaper writing an article based on having sat in a park and watched a recreationally running trans woman pass some cis women who are walking on the same trail.
The london marathon is so intentionally inclusive they have added accessibility features everywhere possible including if you are a wheelchair user who cannot self propell the whole distance, there are volunteers who will run along side you and push you when you need a break
Its not a competition its a community fundraising event

A Small Light in the Darkness Signed Paperback

Merrick Moore is just a regular guy with dreams of…

What's it like to be free?
A lot of the time I post here with an intention in mind: talk about writing, my books, give updates. But why I originally started blogging, long long ago, was to collect my thoughts and share them with people who might feel the same way or feel seen. Lately my challenge has been to do all of the first part while the world is in crisis. Maybe that’s why my speculative fiction writing has turned…
Proofs for A Small Light in the Darkness are here!
One of the most nerve-wracking parts of being an author is waiting to see the fruits of your hard labor and trying not to be nervous about whether it looks like you envisioned. In my case, this time is the hardest it’s ever been to wait, because I did almost every part of this book on my own! From writing to cover design to formatting to sourcing interior illustrations–it’s 100% my baby. My team…
