2025 looked, on the surface of it, like a quiet year for me. Less Tordotcom work and no new anthologies. In truth, I completed three anthologies, and two that were scheduled for October are now coming out in 2026.
Still was a year when I edited two Subterranean Press novellas, ten short stories for Reactor and Subterranean, and acted as reviews editor for Locus for the 23rd consecutive year. As a podcaster, I co-hosted and produced all of the 2025 episodes of The Coode Street Podcast.
