I’ve signed the contract and I can announce that my new Birdverse short story, “The Desert Glassmaker and the Jeweler of Berevyar,” will appear in Uncanny Magazine. It’s the happiest story I wrote since… hm. It might just be the happiest story I’ve ever written, period.

It’s about two artists and their art and a very great distance that separates them, and it’s about sand and jewels and glass, and I am very happy to be able to share it with you soon.

Thank you, Lynne and Michael!
